Rachel, I looked for a possible baptism for Mary Kerwin but I could only find one Kerwin baptism for the whole of Hampshire for the period 1752-1812.

When was the earliest child of Wiliam and Mary King born?

I'm not sure where the surname came from ~ possibly via a contact on GR but I've had difficulty accessing trees on there today so can't check

and I'm assuming that's them in 1841 with a 10 yr old George !

When was the earliest child of Wiliam and Mary King born?

I have Mary King born 1813 and Amelia c 1815

There are a few public trees on ancestry with William King and Mary Kerwin, but none of them has an exact date for their marriage nor details of Mary's parents.

BUT - FamilySearch has a marriage between William King and Mary Kerwin, 8 Nov 1796, Folkestone.

Ah, and it's also in the Kent extracted parish records on ancestry, and more usefully, it states on there that Mary was of the parish of Folkestone, age 17, father Thomas Kerwin.

Hmmmm
Folkestone is really out of the Malling area ... but so is Hampshire :confused:

Don't know what to think now and that LDS one is submitted .....

GR is still not co-operating

[kiterunner]

Baptisms of children of William and Mary King in Folkestone (from FamilySearch):
Thomas 27 Sep 1797, Mary Anna or Mary Anne 27 Dec 1799, Caroline 28 Dec 1801, Rebecca 20 Dec 1805, Susanna 12 Dec 1823, Rebecca same date as Susanna, Mary 9 Feb 1831. Of course the last 3 could be a different family.

[kiterunner]

Who are George and Louisa's parents, Rachel?

[kiterunner]

Hmmm, some of those public trees on ancestry have children of William and Mary born in East Malling in 1803 (William jr) and 1805 (John) which doesn't fit with that Rebecca being baptised in Folkestone in 1805 if it's the same family. I suspect that Mary Kerwin isn't your Mary at all.

[Rachel]

I know nothing of George but Louisa's mother is Amelia King born abt 1815

I have a note that Merry found Amelia's baptism on the LDS and there is a marriage for her and Edward Tuart/Twart in 1846 (East Malling)

I don't yet have a father for Louisa (born 23rd Jan 1844)




Think I'd better disown the Kerwin woman

[Rachel]

At last
I have been fortunate enough to find that I can still access my contact's tree on GR.

Sadly, he doesn't have George King but the good news is that our King branch now goes back to Maldred of Scotland c1007 - c1045 and Edith Northumbria 1015 - 1041 (he seems more positive about Edith's dates) :D




These are the children he has for William King and Mary Kerwin, born between 1803 and 1815

William, John, Sally, Eliza, James, Mary, Amelia and John

All born in E. Malling except for the final John ~ born in Teston

[kiterunner]

Lol at Maldred and Edith.

I reckon it's not Mary Kerwin, then.

[Rachel]

Those other children he has for William and Mary are all submitted entries :rolleyes:
