Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Three marriage look ups - St Lawrence Ramsgate
« on: Saturday 20 October 12 15:16 BST (UK)  »
This board has proved so helpful I was just wondering if anyone could assist with a couple more marriage look ups for me? I am seeking the witness names and whether the bride and groom were of the parish for the following marriages that took place in St Lawrence, Ramsgate;

Sarah Jacobs to Joseph Bartlett on 7th April 1807
Elizabeth Jacobs to Aaron Solley on 17th October 1801
Elizabeth Solley to George Hills on 27th April 1814

Many Thanks

I was just wondering if anyone had access to look up the marrage for a Joanna Jacobs to William Taylor in Chatham in 1818? I am interested in any info, particularly whether they were "of the parish", who the witnesses were and if any parents are listed.

Thank You

I have followed this up and purchased the death certificate for Daniel Jacobs who died 1841. Surprisingly the informant at the death was Elizabeth Hills, daughter; the 1841 census shows Daniel living with Elizabeth Hills and her family. Elizabeth Jacobs originally marries Aaron Solley, then George Hills. The only thing is "my" Daniel Jacobs didn't have a daughter called Elizabeth. There is an Elizabeth Jacobs born in St Lawrence in 1780 to a Daniel and Mary - it appears she is the only child born here. My conundrum is this; Elizabeth Jacobs is born and marries twice in St Lawrence, and she cannot read or write (I know the three sons of my Daniel Jacobs could), but Daniel Jacobs upon his death is bought from Ramsgate to Sandwich to be buried. If Elizabeth was his only child, surely he would have been buried in St Lawrence in Ramsgate? I know his wife was not buried in Sandwich so there must be a reason why he was bought there. My intial thought was it's because he has family there, possibly other children...

More confued than when I started!

Thank you very much.

I had seen te Daniel Jacobs you mention in the 1841 census but was very doubtful that he was one and the same person as "my" Daniel Jacobs. However, if he was bought back to Sandwich from Ramsgate this adds weight to the suggestion that he is the same person. I wonder what happened to Mary? Perhaps she died in Ramsgate?

I wonder if Daniel was born in Sandwich?

I am in possession of an old family tree that suggests Daniel Jacobs married Mary Richardson on 14 July 1777 at St Peters Church Sandwich. I was just wondering if there was anyone who could confirm this for me and if the marriage entry has any other detail (parents, witnesses, where they came from etc)? The same piece of paper also states that both Daniel and Mary were buried at St Peters on 19th August 1841 - surely this can't be true?!
Thank You

Thank you very much for that. I am of the understanding that the Jacobs family lived in Sandwich for a number of years so a visit to the archive would probably be worthwhile.

Hi

I was wondering if anyone can help me? I am researching the Jacobs family from sandwich and am trying to ascertain where they may be buried. I am particularly looking for the following:
William Jacobs - died 1882 (living at the Old Vicarage, Sandwich)
Edward Jacobs - died 1908 (living at the Old Vicarage, Sandwich)
Katherine Mary Jacobs - died 1895 10 months old.
I actaully have a photo taken in the 1920's of the last burial I've mentioned and it has been labelled as 'Ash cemetery' - does such a place exist?

Many Thanks
