The ARGENT Family of Wickhambrook.

[littlemak]

I am trying to find information on the Argent family of Wickhambrook, Suffolk, Joseph Argent son of Robert Argent and
Anne Philippa Newman was born in 1844 in Chevington he married Mary Ann Chapman in WIckhambrook and they lived there and had five children, Frederick, Charles, Martin, Jane and Julia, Julia died in infancy.
Frederick and Martin followed their father in to the shoemaking business, and were named in Joseph's will when he died in 1910.
They were to receive his tools and his stock in trade and a share of his £777.05.04 estate, the will states that Frederick had moved to Middlesboro [sic] and Martin had moved to Cambridge.
Jane was to get his house and a share of the estate, there was no mention of Charles, I do not know if he died or was just not mentioned.
I would love to know more about Frederick and Martin's life after they left Wickhambrook, were they apprenticed to someone and how would I find this out?
I look forward to finding out more.

Carol
