Hi Josephine Your email of 27 October explains something. Sometime, shortly after the 1851 census, Mary Ann (née Hasell) Kew’s elder daughter Elizabeth Hasell Barnes moved to Worle where, age 15, she became nursemaid to Thomas Quinton Quick, son of Thomas Quick and Violetta Tripp. Thomas was the son of John Quick and Elizabeth Badman who was born in Kewstoke 25 or 28 Dec 1797 daughter of William Badman, bap Kewstoke 1761who married Susannah Light 19 Mar 1783 and was son of another William Badman and Mary Light who married 25 Aug 1759 St John Weston-s-Mare (not of course the same Mary Light who married Moses Kew but very possibly related). This makes your reference to the “baptism of Edward Light to Moses Harler and Mary Light KEW on 22nd. April 1821 at Kewstoke” of particular interest. It explains how Moses could have provided the link between Elizabeth Barnes and her future employer. An amusing result was that early on Elizabeth declared her intention of marrying the infant Thomas and indeed she did on 18 Jan 1872. They had 4 children one of whom was William Moses Quick who was born 20 Jun 1880 and was under 2 when he died but the other three married and had families.. Elizabeth must have been well accepted by TQQ’s family for in1861 she was living with Elizabeth née Badman who listed her in the census as niece. I used to think that this simply meant family friend but in view of Moses Kew’s Badman and Light connections they may have been related very indirectly by marriage. Incidentally, the enumerator in 1861 mixed up the birth places of the two Elizabeths. Tom
