William Horne

If it was Chartham asylum then the records are with East Kent Archives at Whitfield near Dover and you will need to visit to view them.

Hi Nel

I have just joined the  forum having seen this thread and am also interested in William Horne. I have quite a bit of info but some of the same gaps as you and would be happy compare notes.

I did get the records from St Augustines, where Emma spent her final years before dying there in 1890. She was originally transferred from a London hospital and I am planning to go to the LMA to find out more, although not sure when.

Alan,

i would be very keen to compare notes.

I have William Horn(e) marrying Emma Coachworth in Faversham in o/n/d 1862.

Two sons that im aware of:

Henry born 1865 married Clara Gibbs j/a/s 1885 Blean.9 children.

Edwin born 1870 married Jane Pooley o/n/d 1891 Blean.10 children.

Jane Pooley had an illigitimate daughter Jane when she married Edwin.

Jane Pooley jnr married Herbert H Bills j/a/s 1908 Canterbury.Herberts mother my ggg aunt.

William Horn(e)s second partner who he didnt marry was Louisa Langford,with whom he had two daughters,they are together on the 1891.

The real mystery im trying to get to the bottom of is on the 1881:

Emma Horne born 1845 Boughton,in Chartham Asylum,(no occ) dealers wife.

William Herne born 1851,Herne Bay,chimney sweep
Ann born 1856 Faversham.
living at Borstal Hill,Whitstable.

Im very keen to discover who the Ann is who hes with whilst his wifes in the asylum.Id be very grateful for any ideas.

Thanks,

Nel.

Nel,

William and Emma were my GGG Grandparents through Edwin.

William Horne, b. abt 1841 d. abt 1902
Emma Frances Coachworth, b. 16 Aug 1846 d. 14 Dec 1890
Married 18 Oct 1862 in Teynham

Emma Frances was in Chartham from March 1876 having transferred from Hoxton House (in London) with Mania caused by Epilepsy. I have yet to get the records from LMA of Hoxton House.

I have few details for Henry.
I have quite a bit for Edwin and Jane (I have 12 children).
Rosa Horn only appears on the 1881 Census.

Louisa Langford was married to William Young (6 Children) but I have no children with William Horne.

The 1881 census is a bit of a puzzle for me as well. It appears to give an age for William 10 years less than the year of birth in the 1871 census. We have never found any other records relating to Ann who remains a mystery.

I do not have Jane Pooley Jnr in my records (I have an Edith who was prior to the marriage of Jane Snr to Edwin).

As I am new to this forum I don't know how to communicate off line, which I would prefer rather than posting full details to the forum.

Regards
Alan
