Kent / Re: Horsemonden Hopes

Thank you KGarrad, I guess it doesn't give years?
I'd join Kent F.H. but am not encouraged by the words: join now & it covers you until June. My bank is not that flush. [no longer of working age]
 Perhaps later when I get full worth for money, not knowing what they actually offer.

Thank you wee Hugh, I'd never had problems with the spelling before as most sites have their own. Mine mainly taken from censuses.
Given the offerings I've seen so far, it was quite close. Perhaps I initiated it due to another which has  ? spellings in Southwark.

So are there any relevant c.d.s for Horsmonden that you know of?

Kent / Horsemonden Hopes

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to buy a c.d. or similar of BMDS in Horsemonden from 1700s - 1800s. [I have seen the M.I.s online which show only the wife of one member.]

I need to re-research the family I had thought sorted, but which now appears to swing from broken limbs & missing twigs.
Any one with Humphrey connections feel free to jump in here ;)

TIA

Kent / Re: Burial in Farnborough Kent. 1895

Just lovely, thank you Chris. I did search for Isaac on didn't a grave but he didn't show up.
His Son Gervais still lived at Cranbrook Cottages, Worlds End Lane, Green St Green, Orpington, in 1911 & died in1931-Bromley- which may mean anything.

The memorial mentions Isaac only as being her spouse in a calculated relationship way- as in being mentioned as the spouse of the deceased.
I'd very much like to see what can be seen of any wording on her stone. Not much mentioned in the list I posted about.

Many thanks again Chris, after finding her - after a wrongly named surname in 1851 I lost her too soon.

P.s. I had not seen those burial registers when I looked at St.Giles, Now I find also Gervase listed.

Kent / Burial in Farnborough Kent. 1895
« on: Wednesday 22 February 17 01:26 GMT (UK)  »
My Gt.Gt.Aunt, 'Mary Thompson' died in Farnborough in 1877 & was buried in Farnborough Church yard, her stone found on the north side.

Her husband 'Isaac Thompson' died in 1895 in Farnborough & was buried there also.
I cannot find him included in 'Leland L. Duncan's' list of burials for Farnborough. Would that be because he had no 'stone' or was buried elsewhere?
I have looked in other areas with no luck.

This man's Baptism was screwed about giving him the wrong birth Father.  :o.  I'd like to see him at least properly interred.  ;)

Thanks for reading,
Wendy

Everywhere a Lambert, perhaps they all came from same stock as John from ? or his parents. I wonder if we'll ever know.
happy Christmas to you & yours also Sandie.  ;D

I thought I'd posted this Sandie but somewhere something went amiss.

I guess a different strain of Lambert, there were quite a few tho' happily not as many as Martins ;)
My Lamberts began as far as I've looked with John 1790, never been convinced of parents for sure nor for his wife Sarah.

1790 John -surrey married Sarah Surname not certain.
Children all born Horselydown.
Sarah 1813,(Fuller) William Geo. 1818, 1822 Alfred William (Howitt)2 of his G.dtrs Edith & Dorthy(Dolly) b. Rotherhithe 1876-1889
1823 Samuel Geo.,(Mary A.Lucretia DEVALL) 1828 Emma- (Sparrow)d.1915 Forest Gate West ham
1830 George, 1835 Eliza Ann, 1836 William.(Ellen Collins)

Thanks for your reply Sandie, I wonder if my Rotherhithe lot knew yours? Others mainly Bermondsey, Horseleydown, Camberwell, but moved about after marriage- even to N.Zealand.

Sandie, may I ask where your Lamberts are from please?

Mine are from Surrey/ London.
