Many thanks fiddlerslass, much appreciated.

I’ve been trying to search on the National Archives Site, but have been going round in circles!

Armed Forces / Charles Hamilton, Seaman, Royal Naval Ship ‘Stag’, 1830’s. Any further records?

My 3x Great Grandfather Charles Hamilton, Born St Luke’s, Middx in approx 1790,

Served in the Royal Navy in Topaz and Stag. Later he was admitted to Greenwich Naval Hospital as a Greenwich Pensioner, after he went blind.

I’ve found entries for him:

But I’m wondering where I can find his Service Record and any further info on these Ships?

Cheers, Romilly.

This is the 1803 Baptism.

It’s for Mary Charlotte Edmeads, although she always used Charlotte.

Charlotte Mary Edmeads was born in 1803, the year after her Parent’s Marriage.

And so she would have been 43 in 1845 when Ellen Hamilton was born.

I’ve been trying to find a Birth in
Frindsbury, Kent, - because that’s where Charlotte Edmeads Marriage took place.

I do wonder if that’s his Father, - also called Adgate Edmeads?

Baptism 1792 Christ Church Southwark
Mary Charlotte Admeads - parents Adgate & Mary Edmeads. Adgate is shown as a coach maker
That would make her 39 when she married in 1831 if it's the same one & not a child who later died

Yes, I was surprised to see that she must have been in her 40’s when Ellen Hamilton was born in 1845.
Charlotte and Ellen are in Greenwich on the 1851 Census. Charles Hamilton went blind and was admitted as a Greenwich Pensioner at the Naval Hospital.
Charlotte died in 1861.
