Surnames: Goldfinch Harris Punnett Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XOZ.2ACEB/3.5 Message Board Post: Mary Maria Goldfinch was the daughter of William Goldfinch, a Miller. She gave birth to Ellen Maria Goldfinch who was baptised at Kingsnorth, Kent on the 24 June 1832. No Fathers name is recorded on the baptism record. Mary Goldfinch married John Fowler by licence at the parish of Chilset in Kent, at the time she was living at Chislet and he was a carpenter from Ashford in Kent. Ellen Maria Goldfinch married William Harris a baker at Ashford 28 December 1852. Their daughter Minnie Jane Harris was my Great Grandmother, she married William Punnett at Elham. This information was recently shared by a Harris relation and I wonder whether there are any connections to the Goldfinch families around the East Kent area. many thanks Heather
