Title: 1851 Census Lookup - SWINNOCK
Post by: csmalley on Sunday 15 April 07 20:54 BST (UK)
I'm looking for parents of Edward Daniel SWINNOCK b. 1846 in Maidstone.

He appears on the 1881 census with his wife, Fanny Terry (/Terrey) BROWN (b. 1845 in Maidstone) and their chlidren (looking for her parents on the 1851 census too if possible, i'm hoping there weren't too many Fanny Terry Brown's in Maidstone!).

They married in 1868, again in maidstone.

Any help would be greatfully received!

Many Thanks, Clare

Thanks Tati, I'll have to get a copy of their wedding certificate to confirm her fathers name.

If you have time - Do Joseph and Letitia appear on the 1841 census together? Wondered if there were any more siblings before Edward was born in 1846.

Thanks for info, appreciate your time  ;D

Lots of children!

Quote from: Tati on Sunday 15 April 07 21:11 BST (UK)
Susannah, wife, 41, b. Loose?

Is there anymore of a clue on the 1841/1861 as to Susanna's birthplace?

And forgive my lack of knowledge - can i assuma that means John Agnett lived in the same household?

Clare  ;D

I suppose Mr Agnett is a lodger or a boarder.  :)

1861 says East Malling for Susannah (children Charlott, Fanny and Celia still at home), 1871 says Loose again (no children at home). 

Edit: I hope this is not their marriage  :-X
GEORGE BROWN - SUSANNA SMITH
Marriage 14 OCT 1827   East Barming, Kent
(I hasten to add that I don't know where East Barming is)

There is a Susannah Smith birth 1808 in Loose on the IGI but also one in East Malling ...

East Mailling, East Barming and Loose all appear to all be just outside of Maidstone!

I only started my family history about 2 week ago, not sure I'm ready to venture into Smith teritory!  :-\

I thought my Swinnock line might be the easiest to follow as there were only a few families around, but can't find anything on Joseph.

There appears to be a Daniel Swinnock on the 41 and 51 census', b. Abt 1777 - i guess i shouldn't assume this is Joseph's dad, even though its his son Edwards middle name! Any pointers? I'm new at all this!  :-[

(Apologies again, i know i'm asking lots of questions!)

I think you'd really need to find his birth. It's not on the IGI at www.familysearch.org :(

Might be worth having a look at the ressources for Kent posted by Casalguidi here http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,87443.0.html

The IGI has recently been updated a great deal for Kent and now includes a baptism for a Joseph SWINNOCK in 1809 Maidstone - parents Daniel and Amelia.

Thanks Casalguidi! Its so lovely of you to update my thread after so many months  ;D

I've since traced that line back another couple of generations, and now having more headaches! You'd think it'd be easier with such an obscure name!

Thanks again,

Clare  :)
