I have Charles GUEST (born c. 1770, Bury St Edmunds, died 28 Oct 1855, Waltham Cross, Herts).
Married (apparently his 2nd wife) Susannah INCE 15 Nov 1807 in Clare, Suffolk.
Charles appears to have been a Captain in the Suffolk Militia - on various birth/marriage certificates of his children he's described as "Officer of Army", "Half Pay Officer", "Annuitant of Suffolk Militia", "Captain in Army" and on his death certificate as "Captain N. A. Half Pay" I presume N.A. stands for Not Active (hardly surprising given he was 85 when he died!) and I assume that "Half Pay" basically refers to what we'd now call a pension.
So far I haven't been able to get any further back than this Charles GUEST.
Susannah INCE appears to have been the daughter of Joseph INCH (born c. Dec 1766 in Stoke by Clare, Suffolk) and Elizabeth ELLINGHAM, who were married 5 Nov 1784 in Clare.
Joseph INCH was the son of Giles INCH (died 10 Mar 1786, Stoke by Clare) and Hannah /Surname Unknown/
Which is as far as I can get with the Inces/Inchs.
So far I've not been able trace Elizabeth ELLINGHAM beyond her marriage to Joseph INCH in 1784.
Charles GUEST and Susannah INCE had the following children;
- Susanna Emily (b. Q1 1814; m. William NOWELL 21/1/1859)
- Caroline (b. Q1 1814 Fornham, Bury St Edmunds; m. ? DODD bef 1861). Caroline was a School Mistress in 1851.
- Charles Edward (b. c. Apr 1816, d. 3 Sep 1818 Fornham St Martin)
- John Henry (b. c. 1818 Fornham St Martin; m. 1. Rebecca ROWLEY 7 Jun 1846 in Shoreditch, London; m. 2. Elizabeth CAMAC (or CARNAC) 5 May 1849 in Langford, Maldon, Essex; d. 18 Apr 1891 in Bethnal Green). John Henry GUEST was mainly a clerk on the railway
- Edward (b. c. 1821 Fornham St Martin)
- Jane C (b. c. 1824, Fornham)
- Charles (b. Jan 1826 Fornham St Martin; m. 1. Sarah FARLEY 24 Oct 1849 in Clifton, Bristol; m. 2. Georgeanna Down 6 Mar 1858 in Clifton Bristol; d. 26 Apr 1863 in Bristol). Charles was a Chemist & Druggist; by 1861 he was a Homeophatic Chemist
- Ellen Sophia (b. c. 1828, Ixworth, Bury St Edmunds)
John Henry is my ancestor, through the marriage to Elizabeth CAMAC and their son Hezekiah GUEST.
If anyone else is looking at these families, or if anyone can shed any light on their further ancestry, I'd be delighted to hear from you.
Does anyone know if there are any Suffolk Militia records that might shed more light on Charles Guest's background and military career?
