Hello,
I am seeking information leading to the uncovering of more details on my gg
grandfather Hammond Chalk, born in Canterbury, Kent, UK around 1798, later to
become a surgeon (Union Medical Officer?) in Buckinghamshire, GB, he married
Mary Womersley in 1834, maybe London area, they had at least 4 children, Clara
(1836 Stratford, london), William Henry (~1838 in Wye,Kent), Walter Robert
(1839 Lowestoft, Suffolk), and Frank (date and place unknown).
He certainly seems to have moved around a lot and maybe due to his Quaker
background was not recorded anywhere I have yet found.
I can trace him back to Quaker fishermen from Folkestone around 1660, later
to become drapers, tradespeople and importers in Canterbury, and would love to
find other people interested in/or connecting to this line.
I have placed most of the details I have on Rootsweb worldconnect as well as
on Gencircles ...
