    3. Hi I am trying to trace my GGG grandmother Alice HENSTON[E]. She may have been from Coventry since she married William BLACKWELL in 1818 in St Michaels Coventry. Her father was John HENSTON[E] according to the baptism of her son James in 1829. She was born about 1795. I have not been able to find much information about Alice. According to family stories, she died en route to Canada in 1840. The passenger record gives her age as 45. Apparently she survived the voyage, but one of her sons did not. His death is recorded on the passenger manifest. There were only two children born to William and Alice as far as I can tell, William in 1823 and James in 1827. Does anyone have records of for any HENSTON[E]S in the Coventry area. The family probably were nonconformist.
