Title: Mercy Arnold
Post by: Tanya_Arnold on Monday 25 February 13 13:42 GMT (UK)
Mercy Arnold married George Joseph Pickett in 1880, Chatham, Kent.

George Joseph Pickett/Picot
Born: 1857 in Stoke Damerel, Devon.

Children:
Mercy Frances S Pickett B. 1881 in Medway, Kent.

I'm just thinking could Mercy Arnold be related to the Arnold family which married other Pickett's and Eastwood's

I'm looking for Mercy Arnold's birth, death, parents, children etc...

Hi

Several online trees have mercy's mother's name as Frances Eastwood, 1911 census she is Eastwood, living with Alfred Arnold.

1860 census Frances Eastwood is with her parent's George (42) and Phoebe (40), siblings
William 20, Benjamin 20, Jane 13, Mary 11, Phebee 10, Richard 7, Philly 3, Emma 6m, Elizabeth 3 grandaughter of George and Phoebe, and a niece Elizabeth 21.

George is a mat maker, and they are in Leigh Kent, address: Caravan.

Also with them is Mercy EASTWOOD grandaughter 6months.

Found this baptism:
Mercy Eastwood  bp. 07 Oct 1860 ,Kent, England. Parent: Frances Eastwood.
