Title: Kilner/London area
Post by: CarolH215 on Monday 09 May 05 13:08 BST (UK)

Looking for information on the following:  Elizabeth Kilner, b. London, 20 Oct 1843.  Her parents William Kilner and Hannah Thorp(e) were married in Old Church, St. Pancras, London, England on 1 August 1834.  Would love to know more about them.

I do not have anything for them except that their daughter was born in 1843 in London and their names were William Kilner, his wife Hannah (Thorp) Kilner and their daughter Elizabeth.  I am wondering if maybe something happened to her parents when she was young as I have not been able to find any info on them at all except their marriage.

Hello

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping and wondering if this older request has been resolved in the meantime or you are still looking for the information?  If the latter, do you have any further information to hand?

If I don't hear from you in a while I'll assume this is resolved and move it to the 'completed' section.

Regards  :)

I have still not been able to find anything else on these people.  Any suggestions on where to look?  According to census, she came over from England  ca1850 at the age of 7 years old.  That is all that I know about her.

Thank you for anything you can tell me.

Thank you for this information.  My William & Hannah were married in Old St. Pancras Church and I only have their daughter born in London.  Do you know if this address is in the same general area?

Hi Carol,
           Finsbury is only a couple of miles from St Pancras.

Cissellby.

Hi Carol

In addition to Cissellby's offering, if you look here http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp Jane and Mary appear to have been baptised in Marylebone which is very close to St Pancras.  It appears they might actually be twins?  Perhaps worth checking out the original records to verify ...

Thank you so much for the information.  I will now have to see if I can check out the official records.  I know that I have found a Jane Kilner is Boston in 1860 living with her mother Elizabeth which is the right age.  No Mary though.  Quite possibly William and Mary might have died.  My Elizabeth that was born in 1843 and immigrated to the US in 1850 named her first child Mary. 

Thank you again for you assistance.

Happy to help, couldn't have found them without Cissellby's 1841 information!

There is a death of a Mary Kilner in Marylebone March Qtr 1844 (no age given) here which might be worth investigating ... http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

There is also an Elizabeth Kilner death 1847 Marylebone ...

Good luck with your research.
