Great to hear from you Janette
I guess now yourself and Beryl would be our "expert" West Chinnock
researchers?
I look forward to hearing about West Chinnock lines and hopefully we can
discover
missing branches that currently are seeking a home.
regards
Michael

Hello Michael & others,
It's Janette here. Here's my CHANT ancestors.
Robert CHANT born 1700 West chinnock married 1721 to Cicely & they had
9 children.
----------------------------------------
Robert CHANT born 1725 West chinnock married 1750 Chiselborough to
Elizabeth DAVIS...they had 13 children.
------------------------------------------
George CHANT born 1746 West chinnock..His 1st marriage was to a Diana &
she died & then his 2nd marriage was 1772 in Somerton to Mary
ASHFORD...they had 5 children.

Ann PEARCE / PIERCE. Ann was John's 1st cousin. She was the daughter of
his auntie Harriet (his father's sister) ...John & Ann had 9 children.

Alfred CHANT born 1724 in Somerton arrived in Melbourne, Victoria on
27.8.1850 on the "Francis Ridley" which left Adelaide, South Australia on
22.8.1850 & was headed for Sydney, NSW. I have a newspaper copy of the
passenger list, which says the ship contained beer, fuel & gin.
Alfred then travelled to & settled in Geelong. He had trained as a
tailor back in Somerton & in 1855 was listed as a weighmaster also.

Alfred's sister Edith chris.1826 in Somerton also came to Australia. She

Cornwall. They also came to Geelong.
