Hello Michael and listers......
You asked me to mention how the Hockey and Salway names are connected with
Chant....
My earliest SALWAY was John who married Sarah ? and begat Robert in 1750.
He married Thomasin ? and begat Susannah, John and Elizabeth. John born
1783 married Johanna Hockey born 1758. They had Mary, William and Anne.
Mary married a Robert Chant but I have no further information on them.
Eliza 1843/1882 married George Ishmael Chant - her parents were William
Salway and Maria Anne Dight Wilment. They were married in Ipswich,
Queensland.
I have about 34 HOCKEY people and 38 SALWAY people and absolutely hundreds
of CHANTS - and more to add.
I can assure you they do mix.
My great grandmother was Sarah Catherine Chant whose parents were Isaac
Muston Chant and Mary Tizzard. Sara's brother was George Ishmael Chant who
married Eliza Salway.
Sorry I didn't mention connections in my earlier posting. I tend to forget
others might not know what I am talking about.
Regards,
Beryl Renton
