I have been doing the Kemp family tree back from the present and have got back to James Kemp married to Ann Acton.
Their children were
Ann b1837
Lydia b1848
Jane R b1843
Albert b1845 -the line I have come down
Thomas A b1844
Sarah b1852
Between 1858 and 1861 the whole family + dau ann's husband Alfred Alderton and their dau Ann moved to Farringdon in London.

In 1841 census  the Kemp Family shown as KIMP but corrected on Ancestry.com are shown as living in Brighton

[Roger323]

As the Kemps lived in Trafalgar Place very close to the site of the then new Brighton Railway Station I would assume he was working on same, Especially as he was a whitesmith -- a fettler of non ferrous castings-- and this was the reason the Kemps lived in Brighton at this period
