Kent Lookup Requests / Re: St Mary the Virgin Dover, BARTON
« on: Monday 06 August 12 08:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi
How lovely to hear from you! I wondered how Faversham came into the picture, perhaps this explains it.
I have a family tree on Ancestry.co.uk, or if you would like to contact me with your email, I can send it as a gedcom.

Kent Lookup Requests / John Barton m Ann Bowl(e) about 1810
« on: Tuesday 10 January 12 14:47 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for this marriage - latest clue is that her parents were Stephen Bowl and Elizabeth Castle, and they were married in Ewell (near Dover). Their first child was born in 1778.
Ann was born in Hawkinge, but the family then moved to Folkestone where two more children were born in 1786 and 1789.
Very grateful if we could find Ann's wedding to John - he lived in Charlton, next village to Ewell, so am hoping that it might have been in the church in Ewell.=; or maybe in Folkestone.
Thanks for any help.

The wills of the 2 John Bartons who died in the 1870s were no use. One was a very simple will, leaving everything to his wife Elizabeth, with no details of family or property.

The other was extremely long, but confirmed that this John B was childless - he left everything to his brother's (William) children. (his nephew was another John Barton).

 :-X

So, I still can't get the Bartons back to 'Tonbridge'.

Do you have access to Hythe Dymchurch and Hawkinge PR's? They are not online or on CD as far as I can ascertain, and I'd like to see if John Barton appears in this area before his marriage to Ann.

Cheers

Kent / Re: RATCLIFFE's from Kent

Thanks AJ.
The name Ratcliffe didn't appear in my family until 20th century, when James Ratcliffe married into the family; so it is of passing interest, but not the main thrust of my research. If you have any connections with Bartons in the 19th century, that would be intriguing :)

Good luck with your research

Yes, that is intriguibng, isn't it?
Maybe John Barton's (Proprietor of houses) will would be interesting!

Thanks for the help, I'm very grateful!

Yes I searched PRs in East Peckham and Hadlow - because I was 'convinced' (hopeful, really) that I had found the link to the Tonbridge Bartons (East Peckham and Hadlow are in the district of t
Tonbridge). I found a  John Barton (b 1788) was son of William Barton and Sarah Rose. I know that John (married to Ann) was a wheelwright from his son's second marriage certificate. I am intrigued about John (m Elizabeth Stoke) and how he fits into the picture, if at all. Charlton and Buckland were very small places in early 1800s.

Why did we decide it was John Barton of East Peckham? There were a number of John Bartons - and a relative of mine has challenged me with the notion that it might be JB of Dover St Mary's. John Barton of East Peckham is John Dennis Barton - and we have no instances of 'Dennis' as a family name. Wheras JB of Dover was married to Frances, and Frances appears as a name in the family...

Is there a way of establishing the East Peckham connection, do you think?

Thanks for this list - it matches mine, so we've got the right family. It is their parents I'm stuck on!

Quite possibly this is John's dob (John married to Charlotte, that is) - all I have is 'abt 1811'. He had younger brothers and sisters - Elizabeth, Stephen. William, Mary. Where in Folkestone was he christened, do you know?
