Have you searched US Census 1870+?
Or immigration into the US?
The Blamfield family originate from Guernsey. recall Samuel Chant capt
was from St Thomas. Could Samuel Chant be our Samuel b 1782
Could Isaac and brother George have caught up with their father's uncle
Samuel?
regards
Michael

I have thoroughly checked the GRO for Isaac's death with no luck
between 1841 and 1851.

Hi Beryl
Yes Isaac is a grandson of George Chant and Elizabeth Noakes
brother of Thomas Chant and therefore a 1st cousin to my
3x great grandfather Luke Chant 1844-1911 and
2x great grandfather Richard Chant 1858-1916.
Isaac appears in the 1841 census at Sherborne, Dorset
286; Parade; Joshua BLAMFIELD; ; 35; M; Tailor&draper; No
; ; Hannah BLAMFIELD; ; 25; F; ; Yes
; ; Elizabeth BLAMFIELD; ; 8; F; ; Yes
; ; John BLAMFIELD; ; 5; M; ; Yes
; ; Joshua BLAMFIELD; ; 3; M; ; Yes
; ; Julia BLAMFIELD; ; 1; F; ; Yes
; ; John HORNER; ; 20; M; Schoolmaster; No
; ; Isaac CHANT; ; 15; M; Tailor ap.; Yes
; ; Joseph GARTELL; ; 15; M; Tailor ap.; Yes
; ; Elizabeth HAMBLIN; ; 15; F; FS; Yes
286 just is the emunerators number not the address number. Full
addresses
are not common
in the 1841 census.
The Parade is I believe around the area of the Thursday Markets at the
Crosskeys
It appears from the above that Isaac had been apprenticed to Joshua
Blamfield
and it is my understanding that back in those days a trade
apprenticeship
took about
seven years and often started when aged 10-14 and hence you lived
with the
boss
while doing the apprenticeship.
I have been unable to locate Isaac Chant b 1825 in the 1851 census
at age
24-26. Possibly
Isaac died before 1851, possibly he missed being recorded in the 1851
census, possibly his name
was poorly written/mistranscribed, possibly he had emigrated
overseas or was
on active service
in the army somewhere in the empire's colonial outposts.
Any suggestions or knowledge about Isaac after 1841 would be much
appreciated.
Oh got copies of photo's of George Ismael and Isaac Muston Chant
which I
understand is
close to your line of Chant's. Believe source for photo's was
yourself but
who did you get them from?

Hi Michael ...
I have Charles Chant 1800 to 1828 married 1823 to Charlotte Lockyer
born 1802, with children George 1823, Charles 1825 and
Thomas 1827. His parents were George Chant and Elizabeth Noakes.
The only other information I have is Thomas married 1846 to Mary Ann
Tucker, and that Thomas was still alive in 1901.
Can you add to this or let me know if Isaac belongs here.
reards,
Beryl Renton
