Somerset Assizes 1844
Held at Taunton Castle on Sat 30th March 1844
There were 145 prisoners up before the judges, amongst them was Joseph
Chant.
I have no further details as to his crime or punishment.
If you wanted to follow up on this, the transcripts of the trials were
reported in the 'Taunton Courier' newspaper over three issues. Copies of
this newspaper are held at the Somerset Record Office.

Michael Cheeseman
Mary was born 26.10.1846 & chris.17.8.1850 Stoke .She married
25.12.1867 to
Edward GUMMER...family unknown.
Edward Gummer was Edwin Gummer i think, brother of my 3xgreat
grandmother sarah Ann Gummer, who married thomas STONE.
Edwin was born in 1847.
In 1881 I have them both living in High Street,Stoke-sub-Hamdon. Info
is he was 34, she was 35. He was an Ag lab and she was a glover.
Nobody else living there.
Mary Ann CHANT was also witness to sarh Ann GUMMER and Thomas STONE'S
wedding in 1862, she made her mark .
Hope this helps a bit

27/5/1855 Mary Ann Chant 32

Anyone able to establish which families these were from?
Regards
Michael
Thank you Janette
Have amended info. One point though, I have James Chant
b 1783 who maried Sara Tavener his burial 1806. His son
James b 1821 burial 1844. Besides Marke and James.
Children included Sampson 1809-1885, Ann b 1818, Dorcas
1819-1824, John 1824-1855 and Sarah b 1826 any addition
info from list members would be appreciated.
Wonder if Ann Tavener who married James Chant son of
Thomas Chant and Mary England was Sarah's sister.Thomas
b 1710 son of Thomas b 1665.
This would indirectly link the Chant family of Robert
b 1700 line including John who married Jane Ford to
Thomas b 1710 line and his brother Robert b 1719 the
three lines claimed to date.
I have John Chant b 1758 married 1777 Jane Ford
None of these details are known in full. If anyone
can confirm them. It would be appreciated. John is
thought to be son of John Chant b 1727 and wife Dianah.
John b 1727 son of Robert 1700-1741. Robert son of Mary father unknown. Not
Thomas b 1665 who married Mary in
1707
The pieces are slowly coming together.

Michael Cheeseman

Greetings list
Karen Hills sent in the following
this inscription at Stoke-sub-Hamdon
In loving memory of Mark Chant. Died June 20th 1891
aged 84 and his wife Elizabeth died 15/9/1886 aged 75.
Also their daughters Mary Ann GUMMER(she married
Gummer, brother to my 3x great grandmother) who
died 1/12/1900 aged 54 and Emma Dalwood died 12/5/1917
aged 80.
This matches Marke Chant bp 10.12.1806 Stoke son of James
Chant and Sara Tavener. Mark married Elizabeth Templeman
bp 18.06.1809 Stoke on the 28.07.1832 Stoke. Known Children were Emma
(Dalwood)b 1835, Elizabeth 1844,Asenath b 1852.
Mary Ann was unknown b circa 1848? d
Any further details about these lines would be appreciated.
Slowly the pieces of the puzzle are coming together.

Surname:
-------------------------
I was just wondering if there are any other Chants in London, as most I
have seen come from or are searching the Dorset/Somerset area.
My grandfather was Thomas William Chant, he was born on the 3rd of August
1922 and died 16th of June 1986 in London.
He served in the second world war and had a brother who died serving.
This shows our ancestors were sometimes very mobile.
CHANT are all one family living together in Guildford.
Guildford, Surrey 1861
CHANT Charles age 7 born Poole, Dorset Hampshire
CHANT Frederick age 9 born Dorset Hampshire
CHANT George age 11 born Southampton Hampshire
CHANT James age 1 born Guildford Hampshire
CHANT Jane 33 born Southampton Hampshire
CHANT Jane age 14 born Southampton Hampshire
CHANT Mary A. age 5 born Poole Dorset Hampshire
CHANT Thomas age 12 born Southampton Hampshire
CHANT William age 3 born Southampton Hampshire
CHANT William age 39 born Salisbury Wiltshire Hampshire
