Warwickshire Lookup Requests / Re: Dent family of Coventry
« on: Friday 23 October 15 06:42 BST (UK)  »
I see this thread hasn't been active for a while, but it seems I "may" have stumbled across the elusive NATHANIEL DENT that arrived on the John in 1840. I have family photos of WILLIAM C DENT and CAROLINE PERKINS that suggests WILLIAM C DENT was possibly NATHANIEL as the photos are marked WILLIAM C ( NATHANIEL) DENT. If this is true and I will double check with older relatives, this may solve the NATHANIEL mystery, but then of course if this is the case we are missing the other WILLIAM listed as being on the John in 1840.
 
WILLIAM C DENT was my great great GRANDFATHER and WILLIAM OWEN who later became know as PATRICK WILLIAM DENT was my Grandfather.

I am researching my family history in Australia. William Owen Kitchener Dent and his wife Eleanor are relatives of mine. Their son William married Caroline Perkins they had 9 children in total that I can find . They moved to Western Australia and are buried in the Boyup Brook cemetery. One of their children William Owen Dent who later changed his name to Patrick William Dent is my grandfather. I am extremely interested to learn more about the family roots in the UK and also happy to help anyone seeking move details on the movements in Australia.

:) Hello Please forgive me as I am new to this. I live in Western Australia and have just started researching my family history. Basically I am a relative of William Owen Kitchener and Ellenor Dent. I am not sure what info you have but they arrived in Aus on the John in 1840. Try this for the passenger list  www.slsa.sa.gov.au/fh/passengerlists/1840John.htm  and this for some more info I managed to find http://boards.ancestry.com.au/surnames.dent/571.1/mb.ashx

I hope these work for you but if not let me know and will chase this up.

Hello

I believe I am a descendant of the above. I have just started tracking my family history. I found this information and believe it may be of use to you.
