Great Chart Parish Register Lookup BOURNE
« on: Monday 27 August 07 01:59 BST (UK) »
I am searching for a birth record for William Bourne of Great Chart, probably circa 1780.  I know he was married 1802. 

I would greatly appreciate info from anyone with access to the parish registers or who is going to have a look through Great Chart for their surnames.

Hello,

I have checked the Great Chart register and no William Bourn(e) was christened there during the period 1750 through 1785.  Neither is he at Little Chart, Westwell, Ashford,  or Pluckley.  There is one christening of a William Bourne at Bethersden as follows:

BOURN   William   baptised   28 Mar   1773  to parents William/Eleanor at Bethersden   , Source: Bishop's Transcripts.

However, if this is his marriage you may want to turn your attention to the Kennington parish register:

BOURN, William married DOWN, Charlotte on 10 Apr 1802 he bachelor of Kennington, she spinster of this parish after banns.  Marriage at   Ashford.  Source:  Bishop's Transcripts.

I hope this helps if you have not already found this reference.

Kind regards,
Susan

Thank you Zacktyr!  That is the correct marriage.  I had just "Ashford," and their children were b. Great Chart, so I was assuming that he was from there also, but now I know that is not so.  I think I will start a new post regarding Kennington.   Thanks so much!
