Hello Michael,
Re your query about George born c1824 Somerset & where he comes from.
I have George CHANT chris.24.9.1824 with parents James CHANT 1800 & Bridget PATTEN
1800-1849. The problem is who are the parents of James 1800 ...that's a mystery to
me. It has been discussed on the list before.
------------------------------------
James CHANT 1800 & Bridget PATTEN 1800 had:--
1) George chris 24.9.1824 West chinnock married 1849 I\in Chiselborough, Somerset to
Mary LANGDON
2) Elizabeth chris.16.9.1927
3) Elizabeth (Betsy) chris.14.12.1828 was un-married with 13 children.
4) Josiah chris.1.1.1830 Wst chinnock married 3.2.1855 West chinnock to Susan CHANT
born 1803 daughter of John Job 1800 & Susannah TILLEY 1791.
5) Ann born c1836 was a reeler in 1851
6) Charlotte born 1842 & died 1st qtr 1842
7 Mary born c1842 possibly twin to above was a nursemaid in 1851.
