1851 lookup please Baldwin Cranbrook
« on: Thursday 23 December 04 07:03 GMT (UK) »
help

Please can you help me. I am trying to trace my family tree.  My relatives 3rd great grandma Charlotte Baldwin (married name) registered the birth of a daughter Elizabeth Ann in 1849 in Cranbrook.  Previous children were all registered in Lamberhurst.

The family are missing from the 1851 census of Lamberhurst but reappear in 1861 Charlotte remarried to James Chesson.  The father of her Baldwin children is unclear but probably Horace Baldwin.  My 2nd great granfather was Horace Baldwin aged about 3 in 1851 census

please help. 8)
