Watermen and lighter-men Apprenticeships Bindings Look up Please?

Does anyone have a copy of the 'Apprenticeship Bindings Index 1692 - 1908' by the Parish Chest and if so would you kindly do a look up for me?
I am looking for reference to William Howlett b. 1856.
Many thanks,
Emma

Hi
I have a copy of the CD but cannot find a William Howlett that could have been born in 1856. The ones listed are either bound 1863 or after 1887.
Can you give any further details fathers name, year bound as apprentice, parish etc. and I will have another try.

Hi Sue
What period does your CD cover. I'm looking for details of Benjamin Gilliard b some time between 1784 - 1793, Prittlewell, Essex. The 1841 and 1851 census shows him in Maidstone, occupation waterman.

Hi Genna
The copy of the CD I have is from 1692 - 1949 for the River Thames.
Going of what you have told me, Benjamin living in Maidstone he may have worked on the Medway.
I had a look anyway and found a few.
Name Binding Location Master Freedom
GILLARD JOHN 13/11/1845 WAPPING CHARLES THOMAS FARRIER 00/00/0000
GILLARD THOMAS 22/07/1698 GRINWICH THOMAS PERRINTON 00/00/0000
Hope this helps.

I just 'fell upon' this thread and wondered if you would mind looking on your CD for me - hope you don't mind me asking but if I can find evidence of my gr.grandfather it might lead me to finding his son!
According to my grandfather's marriage certificate (he was born c.1883) his father WILLIAM WELCH was a Lighterman and according to the family my grandfather came from SE London (Camberwell) area so IF his father was a lighterman it would have been on the Thames.
Apologies for butting in on the thread.
Regards

Hi Sue
Thanks for doing the lookup. I agree with you that he probably worked on the Medway but I haven't found a database for watermen/lightermen working on the Medway, not even at Cityark so I thought it was worth a shot.

Thank you very much for looking, unfortunately I haven't any other names as I haven't been able to locate my grandfather & his family yet.
Looks like my grandfather may have 'promoted' his dad when he spoke to the vicar!! Thanks again for looking.
