Michael the Henry born at Walsall on the 1871 census is indeed son of
THomas Chant of Sherborne.

further development to this thanks to a NZ contact
There is a George CHANT 14 born Dorset, in the Cottage Hospital in
Walsall
1871, same enum district as Mary et al. Birthplace is given as
Weymouth so
could be a false lead.
There is also a 21yr old Henry CHANT in Bermondsey 1871 with
birthplace
given as Walsall. The entry beneath is for a 'tailor, born
Sherborne' so I
wonder
if the entry had been miswritten for these 2 Chant lads. No CHANTs
born
Walsall
in earlier censuses suggest these are from Thomas Chant's family.
Others from family anywhere - FreeBMD has death regs for a Thomas 1862
and Charles 1863 Sherborne, no ages of course so may not be connected.
Sean you have heavily cross referenced FreeBDM entries with John Chant
to determine which entries are from Sherborne lines. Do you know if
Charles
and Thomas mentioned above fit in with the family of Thomas Chant
son of
3x great uncle Charles?

Michael
