Hi Anne, Nice to hear from you on a different list. Perhaps when I get back to my Cheltenham man I'll hear from you again. I appreciate all the help you have given me with my BARKER family. Thank you for these details. Would you mind sending me the census images when you have time please? In your 1841 census info there is a Robert Peete and IGI has Rachel PEELE marrying Henry Lansell so Rachel was the widow PEETE and Robert is her son and Charlotte's stepbrother. I've noted on the 1851 census Charlotte is a dressmaker. Her eldest dau. Rachel Barker was a dressmaker and went on to be a dressmaker to the Royal Court Buckingham Palace. Her younger sister Elizabeth became her apprentice and when her cousin from France came to live with them she was also her apprentice and her brother James was a tailor in Savill Row. I have recently met my 3rd cousin living here in Brisbane and he is descended through Charlotte and Williams dau Elizabeth and I am having a wonderful time meeting this side of my family via photographs and first hand knowledge from Ken. thank you once again Ann ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anne Peat" <anne.peat@bigwindows.demon.co.uk> To: <Isle-of-Thanet-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, July 03, 2006 9:45 PM Subject: Re: [IoT] Looking for Charlotte Lansell > Anne, > This might help a bit. > 1841 > > Charlotte Lansell > Age: 12 > Estimated birth year: abt 1829 > Household: View other family members > Gender: Female > Where born: Kent, England > > Charlotte Lansell abt 1829 Kent, England St Peter Kent Gibbon Lansell > abt 1827 Kent, England St Peter Kent Rachel Lansell abt 1796 Kent, England > St Peter Kent > > Robert Peete abt 1826 Kent, England St Peter Kent > > Civil parish: St Peter > Hundred: Ringslow > County/Island: Kent > Country: England > > Street address: Charlotte Street > > Occupation: School mistress ( Rachel) labourer ( Robert) > > Source information: HO107/468/18 > Registration district: Isle of Thanet > Sub-registration district: Ramsgate > ED, institution, or vessel: 20 > Folio: 34 > Page: 26 > Line number: 7 > > and 1851 > > Charlotte Lansell > Age: 21 > Estimated birth year: abt 1830 > Relation: Daughter > Household: View other family members > Gender: Female > Where born: St Peters, Kent, England > > Civil parish: Thanet St Peter > Ecclesiastical parish: Broadstairs > Town: Broadstairs > County/Island: Kent > Country: England > > Street address: High Street > > Occupation: Dress maker > > > Source information: HO107/1630 > Registration district: Thanet > Sub-registration district: Ramsgate > ED, institution, or vessel: 1e > Folio: 72 > Page: 14 > > Rachel is on her own.
