Churches and memorials photo request

[MattD30]

Is there anybody who can check for memorials and take photos of them in churches in Thanet, Littlebourne, Kingstone, and Margate?

Hi Matt

Those are in my part of the world - do you have specifics on what you're after?

Hello Matt

Thanks for the reply.  Here's the names I'm looking for

Margate:

Thanet:

Kingstone:

Dates: 15th century onwards.

Hope that helps, and hope you are able to come up with something.

Do you have any church names? Kingston and Littlebourne are small villages with one or possibly 2 churches, but Thanet (of which Margate is part) will have dozens of churches as it's a very big area.

Might be helpful to put together a working list here of what churches and memorials to check, going to start with Kingston and Littlebourne as these will be easiest. Anyone please feel free to add to the list if you know of any.

Kingston


Littlebourne

St. John the Evangelist Ickham
St. Marys Stodmarsh
St. Vincent Littlebourne
St. Andrews Wickhambreaux

Hello Matt

Kingston is my parish church.  It is called St Giles and I will have a mooch round the churchyard and see what I can find.

If it helps anyone, there are some monumental inscriptions for Kingston in the following publication http://www.archive.org/details/parishregisterso00kingrich

It looks to be dated 1893 but I don't know if it's a complete list for that date as I haven't yet looked through the whole publication myself.

Have just had a look in the churchyard and can find no Denne's.  However some of the very old headstones are very faded and unreadable.

Have another avenue to look and will get back to you.

Sorry I forgot to mention which churches they were connected to.

I'm looking for the names billinghurst and Norwood in St Peter's, Thanet

Billinghurst and Denne in Littlebourne (St Vincent I think)

I will send more details over the weekend.
