Can anyone help me please :)
I have just found that my Great Great Grandfather Henry Burtenshaw married Susanna, I have no surname for her, all I know is that she was born in Tonbridge Kent in 1820. I don't know where Henry was born, but believe it might be Margate.
Thanks in anticipation

Hi Cecilia
Is it this family in 1851?
1851
Bachelor Row, Tunbridge, Kent
Susanna BUTTENSHAW head wid 31 dressmaker b.Tunbridge
William H son 8 b.Ashford Kent
Charles son 6 b.Bromley Kent
Harriett dau 3 b.Maidstone? Kent
HO107/1615 folio 95 page 35

Perahps you could get the birth certificate for one of the children to find Susanna's maiden name? This, in turn, should hopefully enable you to locate a marriage of "Henry" & Susanna which should, again hopefully, help with his origins.

Hi Cecilia
As this is an old request you may well have made some progress by now but if not, there are baptisms for two children on the IGI which could well fit with the family above.
Harriett 1848 Maidstone and Charles 1844 Keston. However, it is interesting that the mother, in both cases, is listed as Juliana whereas the 1851 census definitely reads Susanna http://freebmd.rootsweb.com
Juliana appears to have remarried, to a William MILTON 1860 Tonbridge registration district http://freebmd.rootsweb.com
1871 - 5 St John's Terrace, Croydon
William MILTON head mar 64 dairyman b.Tunbridge
Julia wife 52 b.Tunbridge
Julia dau 19 b.Tunbridge
Mary ANWELL lodger mar 42 annuitant b.Brixton Surrey
RG10/841 folio 72 page 40
.........................
1861 - Priory St, Hastings, Sussex
William BURTENSHAW head mar 55 out of business b.Sevenoaks Kent
Jula wife 45 b.Cowden Sussex
William son 19 shoemaker b.Tunbridge
Charles son 17 tailor b.Tunbridge
Harriett dau 13 b.Tunbridge
Julia dau 10 b.Tunbridge
RG9/560 folio 142 page 52
No wonder they were difficult to find ;)
