Hi
I would greatly appreciate anyone's help to look up birth information for the following person:
Name: George Sawkins
He married Sarah Sharp on Feb 24 1846 in Elham parish church - his father's name is stated as Richard Sawkins (occupation = labourer)
In the 1851 census, George (31yrs) & Sarah (25yrs) are living in Lyminge, with 2 daughters (Emma & Angelica) - his birthplace is stated as Elmsted
Many thanks
JB

There is now a transcription of the parish registers for Elmsted online and the baptism for a George SAWKINS is there at around the right time http://www.hastingleigh.com/hast-other-parish.html
