Newington rang a bell and I remembered a website (http://www.dswark.org) i had looked at before. Not sure if it is of any use, or the correct one but..... FYI: The Parish Church of Saint Mary Newington 57 Kennington Park Road Kennington London SE11 4JQ 020 7735 1894 Until 1870's the church was located at the Elephant and Castle roundabout when it, and several others were relocated due to road changes in the area. In the 1950's the area was affected by bomb damage so perhaps the street disappeared then. Visitors to this site may include those in search of Family History records. Please note that historical records and registers of baptisms, marriages and burials etc are not held in the parish. They are in the care of: The London Metropolitan Archives 40 Northampton Road London EC1R 0HB Tel:(+44) 020 7332 3820 (Reception) (+44) 020 7332 3822 (Parish records) Fax:(+44) 020 7833 9136 Email: London Metropolitan Archives ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Chris Penfold" <chris.penfold@ntlworld.com> Reply-To: PENFOLD-L@rootsweb.com To: PENFOLD-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Penfold] William George Penfold Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2003 17:53:38 -0000 Hello Viki, William George Penfold is my Great Grand Father, William George Benjamin my Grand Father and his son Harry John my Dad. I have done a bit of research over the last few years and have found a few birth and marriage certificates which confirm dates and addresses etc. William George was born 26/5/1861 and his father was also William George (an original lot us Penfolds). His mother was Elen Reading and they were married at St. Mary, Lambeth on 29/7/1860. William George the elder was born 3/1/1838 in Trinity St Mary, Newington. This is where things get a bit sketchy. William George the elder's Parents were George Penfold & Mary Tildesley and on William's birth certificate he is listed as a Letter carrier for the General Post Office. I have since found his appointment in the Post Office archives (24/5/1835) at Mount Pleasant and some pension details. According to the birth certificate George & Mary were living at 4 Maryland Place, Newington but I have not been able to find this address in old census returns. I believe that George was born around 1808 and I have found an IGI listing for their marriage of 13/4/1828 in 'London'. I hope this is what you are looking for. If you would like other more recent details please let me know. If anyone else is researching this line please let us know Chris ----- Original Message ----- From: <viki.penfold@talk21.com> To: <PENFOLD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 9:09 AM Subject: [Penfold] William George Penfold > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Penfold > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CS5.2ACEB/72 > > Message Board Post: > > Am looking for information on William George Penfold was married to Annie Manser had son William George Benjamin Penfold January 1887 who was born in Richmond Surrey.
