Title: Birth of Ann Bushell birth Ash n Staple 1807
Post by: Elaine and Marie Dewell on Wednesday 17 November 10 07:03 GMT (UK)
I am stumped with an Ann Bushell born I thought 21 Feb 1807 in Ash near Staple, Kent.
She married William Port St. Nicholas, Ash next Sandwich, Kent 13 Oct 1831.
Have found them in the 1841, 51, 61, 71, census living in Woodnesborough.
She died 4 May 1873 aged 66 in Woodnesborough.

But I cannot find a birth for her in any free BMD records.

I really am after it to find her father's name which I thought was Peter but now think is John or Peter.
Thanks fo rany help that can be provided.
Marie, Western Australia

Sharon, thanks so much for this. May I check with you on the process as I am obviously doing something wrong. 

So I am going to this link http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#start and then typing in
First name: Ann
Last name: Bushell
Event: Birth/Christening
Year 1907
Location: Ash - got nothing. Staple - got nothing. England - 13 hits not the one above.

Am I using the wrong site perhaps? As I still couldn't find what you found so quickly.
Appreciate your advice. Regards, Marie
Western Australia

You made a typo in your last post 1907 instead of 1807, perhaps you did the same on Family Search. It come up immediately with the correct year, it is the only search result.
