Hello Everyone,
Its Janette here. I've been wading through my files trying to find possible
parents for Noah William born 1816.
Has anyone looked in the baptisms for Stoke sub Hamden for this Noah to find out his
parents names.
*** Noah had a son Thomas 1846 who married Emily Anna THORNE. I've found that
her grandparents were Thomas THORNE & Martha CHANT who married 1819 in
Stoke-sub-Hamden. This Martha is the daughter of John CHANT 1756 & Jane FORD 1759.
I was thinking that seeing Noah William CHANT was born in Stoke-sub-Hamden his
parents could have been too.
I've got a family sheet for a Thomas CHANT born 1787 Stoke-sub-Hamden who married
22.10.1810 in Stoke-sub-Hamden to Mary SPEARING. Thomas is son of John Chant & Jane
Ford as Martha above was too. I've only got 4 children recorded for Thomas & Mary
as follows:---- Honour born 1811 , Joseph born 1827 who married a Harriett & died
1855..I have that they were in Australia., Daniel Thomas known as Tom, born 1827 who
married 23.2.1849 to Mary Ann Gaylard & 5.8.1883 to Eliza Terrell & a Peter born
1829. I have that this Peter had a Dominic in 1872..wife unknown.
*** So as you see Thomas & Mary married 1810 & had children in 1811, 2 in 1827
& one in 1829. There are big gaps in the dates of children born to them. Noah could
have been born to them & not baptized.. Does anyone know of any extra children of
Thomas & Mary.
*** I've got Noah William's descendants entered on my main connected file because
of the connection via Emily Thorne right back to John Chant & Jane Ford. It would be
good if Noah was descended from Thomas.
By the way on the IGI there's an Adam born 10.7.1820 & chris.27.7.1820 in
South Petherton Wesleyan circuit to Thomas & Mary. I wonder if this Adam is from
Thomas & Mary as well. Does anyone know please?.
Any suggestions re the above?.
Regards,
Janette in Oz.
