Mary (1802-1880) was the second of 11 children, my 3X great grandfather, William Bingham (1822-1885) being the tenth. Thomas Bingham (1776-) married Mary King (1782-1856) approximately May 1800 at St. Mary's, Great Chart. Banns were read in Woodchurch and Great Chart. Thomas was christened 26th November 1776 at Woodchurch and Mary 25th December 1782 at Great Chart. Mary, Widow, died at Sly Corner, Kenardington on 29th October 1856. I have a copy of her death certificate. I have not found the death/burial details of Thomas Bingham (1776-) yet. Thomas (1776-) was the eldest of 8 children of James Bingham (1752 approximately -1828) and Mary Henman (1752 calculated - 1834). They married at Woodchurch 30th July 1775. Both were parishioners of Woodchurch at the time of their marriage. Both were buried at Woodchurch. No known graves. William Bingham (1822-1885), my 3X great grandfather, married Mary Ann Ransley (1834-1922) at St Mary's Kenardington on 12th April 1856. My mother now 91, remembers Mary Ann Ransley Bingham clearly. They had 7 children, Sarah Ann, my great grandmother (1863-1951) being the third. I remember her from when I stayed with her in 1947 at Staplehurst, the only great grandparent I knew. The 6th child of William (1822-1885) and Mary Ann (1834-1922) was Thomas Bingham, my great great uncle, christened at Woodchurch 4th April 1871 (privately so probably sickly at birth) and buried at Woodchurch 4th April 1878. No known grave. I now know he died 28th March 1878. Many thanks Josie. I have been unable to trace Mary Henman's ancestors. I hope that tidy's a few things up.

Dear Bob, Excellent! I'm so pleased you were able to able to link Thomas Bingham to the right family. I think it might be a good idea if I put the bare details of all my cards on the list as I have a few that I can't match up! However, I must go and do some more searching in my cupboards as your email and Merilyn's have raised a few more questions. My father's family (Back) spent from about 1700 -1750s in Woodchurch, then about 1800- present day. In the intervening period one generation was apprenticed out as poor children to Shadoxhurst, I think, to a Couchman. One of them also married a Bingham in Shadoxhurst. Lastly, Rebecca Cramp in Merilyn's email is ringing bells because my Beslees married into the Cramp family twice in the early 1800s; one was a Rebecca....must go and look...good thing it's bank holiday. Best wishes, Josie

Hi Bob ...I saw the Mary HENMAN. I joined the list as I am trying to trace My HENMAN family. My GGGGGWilliam HENMAN was born circa 1850. His eldest son Robert*Chevening 1779 emigrates to South Africa in 1820. Does anyone have anything that might link your Mary with my William HENMAN. I know this is clutching at straws!.

Hi Bob, Wow, you have made my day, Thankyou so much for the information about Thomas Bingham and others. I actually spoke to you last year at the family day in Woodchurch, but as I was really just a beginner, we couldn't make a connection with the family. My husbands 2x Gt grandfather being George ( probably the 9th child ) I seem to remember the George you had ,married Rebecca Cramp. It's great too, to have Thomas' parents. I had seen the marriage for James and Mary Henman on the list, but wasn't at all sure whether that was the connection. My mum-in-law was the daughter of Edward Stephen Bingham, he was born in Teynham in 1883, but was killed in WW1, two weeks before her 4th birthday, so she didn't remember him. E S, was the first son of Edward Stephen Bingham, born 1863, and he was the 9th child of George and Ann Eliza Bingham George died in1900 and Ann Eliza died in 1872 both in Sittingbourne, as yet I can't discover where they were buried, in time perhaps. You have been a tremendous help, Thank you so much. Best wishes Lyn

Hi Cheri I have nothing on Mary Henman other than what was in my Email. I think your William Henman was born circa 1750 from the other dates. Do you know where? Any other information on him? Otherwise hopefully we may get a response from some kind person. Bob Chown Cheri Marshall <cherim@tpg.com.au> wrote: Hi Bob ...I saw the Mary HENMAN.

Hello Everyone, I've just joined the list and I'm hoping someone can help me. I am looking for THOMAS BINGHAM. No dates at all. He was the father of ( at least ) Mary Bingham born about 1806 , married in Woodchurch 1840 to David Couchman. George (2xGt Grandfather ) born about 1819, I believe Thomas' second wife was Mary , in 1841 she is widowed and living in Woodchurch with William aged 15yrs and Caroline aged 14 yrs, she died later that year. In 1851, Mary is now living with David and Mary Couchman, and is recorded as Step-mother . I would love to have any information about Thomas, his first wife and any siblings of George. George married Ann Eliza Wanstall , 1842 Bilsington, they had 9 children. Julia 1841 ( baptised as Wanstall) Eliza 1843 Caroline 1845 George James 1848 William John 1850. Thomas Richard 1854. Mary Ann 1857. Harry 1859 . Edward Stephen (Gt grandfather ) 1863 Teynham Kent, mar Amy Jane Edwards 1883 Milton (Sittingbourne ). All the children were born in Woodchurch, Bilsington and Kingsnorth apart from Edward. If anyone knows anything, I will be eternally grateful. I shall look forward to hearing from anyone. Best wishes to all. Merilyn

Hi Martin My BOURNE connection is very remote: My grt grandparents x 4 were Edward JENNER (c1787-1863) who in 14/01/1809 married Jane MARSHALL (c1790-1828). They had at least 8 children, one of whom, George JENNER, I am descended from. George's sister, Hester/Esther (b c1823) married Claudius Caesar BOURNE in 1848. Claudius was a carpenter journeyman. I am not sure how this fits in with your Sophia & Benjamin or Sarah & Smith King. The only Sarah JENNER I have was born post 1857 so would be too young to be yours. However its very likely that they are all related. I will pass on your details to the other folks I know who are researching these names if OK with you.

Hi John - I have a particular interest in Warehorne. My great Grandmother came from Warehorne & lived variously at the Leacon & Warehorne Green. The World's Wonder would certainly have been used by her father (Thomas Wooley Manning) in the Leacon days, although he may have switched to the Woolpack when living on the Green! Whilst researching my greatgrandmother's family I beame increasingly interested in the whole village of Warehorne and have begun transcribing and collating ALL the censuses for everyone who lived there from 1841 to 1901- ths is about 2/3rds complete. It is really interesting to see who did what & who were the permanent families & who who were transient. There does seem to be quite a lot of moving about. My direct family surnames for Warehorne are WOOLLEY MANNING, JENNER & BROWN. There are connections with the BOURNES by marriage. I am gradually building up a picture of Warehorne during the census years and would welcome any contribuitions such as your research on World's Wonder - I did not receive the attachment you sent, so is it possible to resend directly to me? Once I have all the census information collated I will be able to send you details of any individual or family in Warehorne. I hope to add to census information with contributions from those who have researched any of the families - either BMD's or anecdotes. I would also like any information about anything to do with Warehorne in this period (may expand later).- e.g. history of buildings, events etc. As you are likely to meet folks who may have had ancestors who were locals, it would be great if you could pass on any info.

Hi Sharon: I am directly connected to BOURNE in Woodchurch and indirectly to JENNER, so I would be interested in your research on these names. My direct line is via Sophia BOURNE and Benjamin KING (my great-great-grandparents). Sarah JENNER married Smith KING 20 Apr 1837 at Woodchurch, Smith's father John KING was Benjamin's younger brother. Any interesting connections to your BOURNEs and JENNERs? Regards Martin Willcocks Taylorsville, UT, USA.

_____ From: john [mailto:john@worldswonder.co.uk] Sent: 29 April 2007 02:30 To: 'ENG-KEN-WOODCHURCH-L@rootsweb.com' Subject: Knights in Woodchurch Hi, My name is John Roberts the owner of the Worlds Wonder Warehorne for the past 16 months or so. I am trying to assimilate as much history on the pub and its previous owners/occupiers/tenants and produce an history to be a legacy for the pub, it's regular customers and for history in general. Attached is some research I did concerning one Thomas Knight from Kenardington, and some mystery concerning his family. Some reference is made of an Elizabeth Knight from Kenardington, and see that this is a name your research is also interested in. My Elizabeth is probably a married name, but would you have any info on who or what her maiden name may be? I know this is a long shot but your records may show a connection, and shed some light on the strange situation he family records seem to show. Additionally I am trying to find out something about James Bourne, the man who purchased the beer house from thomeas Knight, and wondered if he may have had some connection to the Bourns' in your research. Thanks in advance, Best Regards John Roberts Worlds Wonder

On the IGI www.familysearch.org.uk there is a marriage of a George Cole and Sarah Pearson at Ebony (tiny village just south of Woodchurch) 29 June 1799. But perhaps you've seen this already. Best wishes, Josie
