Re this Tatershall family "of Chipstead, Surrey" (with tiger arms, as opposed to Tatershall family of Norfolk, with different arms) see John Nichols, Illustrations of the Literary History of the Eighteenth Century, Volume 8, note re p.853[3]:

The Rev. James Tattersall died Sept. 12, 1784, aged 72, and was buried at Chipsted, co. Surrey. See in the History of that county, by Manning and Bray, vol. ii. p. 248, his epitaph there, together with others of his family. His first wife, Dorothy, was daughter of the Rev. William De Chair, and sister of the Rev. Dr. John De Chair, Rector of Little Risington, Gloucestershire, and one of his Majesty's Chaplains. His second wife and widow died May 27, 1803, aged 78. His eldest son the Rev. John Tattersall, M.A. was Chaplain to His Majesty, Vicar of Bredhurst, Kent, and of Harewood and Ledesham, Yorkshire. He married Sibylla-Christiana, daughter of Capt. Robert Haswell, R.N., and widow of Granville Wheler, Esq. of Otterden Place, Kent. She died 1837; and he April 9, 180). His son, the Rev. John Cecil Tattersall, B.A., Student of Christ Church, Oxford, died Dec. 8, 1812, aged 24. (See Gent. Mag. 1813, i. 83). He was the schoolfellow of Lord Byron, at Harrow, and probably saved the Poet's life. See Moore's Life of Lord Byron, i. 43, and the anecdote narrated with Byron's Lines on Tattersall, Gent. Mag. 1832, i. 478. Mr. Granville Wheler's only son, Granville Hastings Wheler, Esq. F.S.A., of Otterden Place and Ledstone Hall, married Jane, youngest daughter of the Rev. William De Chair Tattersall, and by her (who died in March, 1842) he had one son Granville-Charles, who died in 1818, in his eighth year. Mr. Granville Hastings Wheler died Feb. 3, 1827, aged 46 ; see an account of him in Gent. Mag. 1828, i. 180. See also a view and account of Otterden Place, Kent, with a pedigree and account of the Wheler family, by the Rev. Thomas Rackett, in Gent. Mag. 1832, pp. 393-399; and a view and account of Otterden Church, with the epitaphs of the Wheler family, in pp. 497-499. The second son of the Rev. James Tattersall, the Rev. William De Chair Tattersall, F.S.A. was educated at Westminster school, where he was admitted King's scholar in 1765, and elected to Christ Church, Oxford, in 1770, at the head of his election ; previous to which he was distinguished for his performance of the character of Phormio, and received the commendation of Garrick. He took the degree of M.A. in 1777. He was presented to the rectory of Westbourne in Sussex in 1778 by his father, who acquired the right by purchase from the executors of the late Earl of Halifax, and to that of Wottonunder-Edge in 1779 by his College. Both these livings he held until his death. Mr. Tattersall exerted a laudable zeal in the improvement of Psalmody and Church music. He published in 1791, A Version or Paraphrase of the Psalms, originally written by James Merrick, M.A. which he divided into stanzas, and adapted to the purposes of public use or of private devotion, 4to. and likewise an edition in 8vo. ; the preface of which displays considerable learning and ability. (These works are in Watt's . Bibliotheca erroneously assigned to William Tattersall, M.D. of Liverpool.) He was encouraged to persevere in his design by very flattering encomiums of the greater part of the right reverend Prelates who were then living, particularly of his diocesans, Dr. Halifax and Dr. Beadon, successively Bishops of Gloucester; and of Dr. Horne, Bishop of Norwich, who observed to him, in a letter, that he accounted the division of Merrick's Psalms into stanzas a great advantage, as it fitted them at once for regular music. With an enthusiastic ardour in the prosecution of this his favourite pursuit, he adapted several of the most approved old tunes to Merrick's version ; and he likewise prevailed upon the most eminent composers of his time, viz. his intimate friend Sir William Parsons, Dr. Cooke, Dr. Hayes, Dr. Dupuis, Dr. Arnold, Dr. Haydn, Dr. Calcott, Mr. T. Stafford Smith, the Rev. Osborne Wight, Mr. Stevens, Mr. Shield, Mr. Webbe, Mr. Worgan.

The historic Quarry Dean limestone quarries at Merstham play an significant part in the history of Chipstead. Over centuries, these quarries were a nationally important source of building stone and were a source of great wealth to the families who owned them. Two such families, the Tattershalls and the Jolliffes, became Lords of the Manor of Chipstead. The quarry estate was owned by the Tattersall family of Upper Gatton in the 18th century. The Rev’d John Tattersall became Rector of St Margaret’s Church in 1718. In 1788 James Tattersall sold the estate to William Jolliffe of Petersfield
