    3. Hi From Halesworth parish registers Thomas son of Thomas and Sarah Brett was baptized 31 Jan 1797 * suspect he was buried as an infant Thomas son of Thomas and Sarah Brett was baptized 24 Apr 1801 and buried 09 Aug 1801 Thomas son of Thomas and Sarah Brett was baptized 23 Jun 1802 Mother's maiden name was Blandell Hopes this helps Anitra Brian Griffiths wrote: > I wonder if someone with access to Halesworth PRs could have a look for > the christening of a Thomas Brett around 1802?

    1. [SFK-UK] Thomas BRETT - Halesworth
    2. Brian Griffiths
    3. I wonder if someone with access to Halesworth PRs could have a look for the christening of a Thomas Brett around 1802? He is the husband of my GGGG aunt Alitha Algar of North Cove. They married in 1820 at Barnby, at which time he was decribed as "of Southwold" He's a bit of a puzzle. The 1851 census has him in Lakenheath, but the age appears to be 69, suggesting a birth around 1782, and much older than his wife. This conflicts with the 1841 census, where he is younger than his wife, who seems to be mis-named Charlotte in 1851! However her place of birth and age is correct for Alitha, and 3 of their children are with them in both 1841 and 1851. I also have a death certificate (1854) which I think must be him which places his birth firmly in the 1801-2 timeframe. Alitha outlived him. I am also trying to track down his son John, who in 1851 is married to a Harriet with 3 children (living with Thomas & "Charlotte"/Alitha). After that he disappears completely until 1871 when he apparently pops up in Stepney married to an Ellen with (c1826 -?1903?) a different set of children. We are fairly sure this is the same chap, as his death record (1903) refers to him as John Algar Brett. Any help most gratefully received Brian

Bob I take it that you have found Hannah Choat in Chatham in the 1861 census but she gives her place of birth as Gillingham. I see that in the 1851 the Hannah Choat in Barking is listed as being born in Willisham. I just wonder if the enumerator misread his own writing and substituted Willisham with Gillingham which was more local to him. Both places have the double L and end with ham so I suppose it is possible. The enumerators books were usually written up after the census information had been collected. The Hannah Choat of Kent does not appear in the 1851 census which could be further evidence of the theory. Is there anything that would connect your Hannah with Chatham (someone naval in the family?) or Kent. Brian

    3. Many thanks for your reply Brian I rushed off the post without thinking to check the LDS catalogue but did more or less suspect it would be the BTs This latest link to Woolpit is my first there but it seems to be a wholesome one This is on my fathers side of HAYLOCK & BROWNING , the HAYLOCKs from West Wratting Cambs and the BROWNINGs from Gt Wilbraham, Ousden and now GARDINER in Woolpit, I also have a new CROSSMAN connection to Stoke Ash So it seems I will be busy On my mothers side I have WELLS , BLOIS , CAUDELL , STIFF from Norton, Bury St Edmunds & Horringer How odd they should start off over 200 years ago not so far from each other and by a circuitous route meet up when my mother and father met in the early 1930's in Ealing Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Nivard Ovington <ovington1@sky.com> wrote: >> I am researching the BROWNING CROSSMAN GARDINER line , my >> g.g.g.grandmother was Dorothy BROWNING christened 21st Sep 1777 at >> Ousden >> Her parents were Thomas BROWNING & Mary nee GARDINER >> I have found the following <snip> >>> From familysearch beta > <snip> > >> Source Film Number 898000 > > Nivard > >>From the Family History Library Catalog this film number relates to >>Bishop's > transcripts for the Archdeaconry of Sudbury, 1560-1853 so I guess that > this > is where Sudbury came from.

Correction The boundaries keep changing and Woolpit is on the edge of East and West Suffolk - I now find that it is still in the Sudbury Archdeaconry - my first point of reference did not have the parish listed! It may well be that it has moved in and out over the years. Brian
