Hi,
I am seeking any details with regards some of my ancestors who appear to be absent from the census.
I am seeking a Charles Cursey and his family.
Charles was the son of James Cursey b Essex and Eliza Cooke
Charles b 1853 Thundersley Essex d 1932 Maidstone, Kent.
He married Mary Tookey 1853 Thundersley
They had
Charley "Toskey" b 1876 Thundersley
Ester b 1879 Cliffe Kent
Joseph b 1881 " "
Albert b 1883 " "
Agnes b 1885 " "
Arthur b 1886 " "
Mary b 1889 " "
I have tried all manner of spelling and variation I can think off in relation to Cursey or Kersey etc, but I cannot locate any reference to this family who I know are my ancestors.
Can you locate them anywhere please?
BFN

I have found the following.
First the surname I have found is spelled Kearsey.
Charles Kearsey married Mary Elizabeth Tookey in Dec 1874.
in the 1881 census
2 Mill house, Cliffe, North Aylesford, Kent, England
Charles Kearsey born Thundersley 1853 cement laborer
Mary Elizabeth Kearsey born Thundersley 1854
Charles Toskey Kearsey born Thundersley 1876
Joesph Benjamin Kearsey born Cliffe, Kent 1879
Also lodging there is what I presume is Charles Brother
Walter Robert Kearsy born Thundersley 1862 chalk laborer
in the 1891 census
29 Turner Road, Cliffe, North Ayleford, Kent, England
Charles b1853 cement Laborer
Mary E b 1854
Albert H b 1883
Arthur W b 1886
Esther b 1879
Mary A b 1889
and in the 1901 census

Charles b1853 cement laborer
Mary b1854
esther b 1879
Arthur b1886
Mary b 1889

Hope that was of help, there were quite a few other Kearseys living in the same area at the same time as Charles and Elizabeth. Let me know if you need any more help

Sorry,
In my haste to apologize for disappearing I pressed the wrong key.
I Just wanted to say I was called away unexpectedly and will have to be away again next week.
May thanks for all infomation given. This has proved the people did actually exist and now I can prove a link between my self and another family tree forager.
I have to say that this site has to be the best on the net for infomation given by superb searchers who faultlessly seek out what others can not.
Many thanks again.

Saturday and still sleepy, but in 1881 I found
James Kearsey 1846 Orsett Cement Mixer m Sarah 1846 Orsett
I wonder in 1901 James had died and Sarah was the Sarah and children living with Charles.

Hi
Joolsbaar:- I have Charles and Mary as Marrying on 13 Oct 1874. You say Dec. Mine came from a family chart, but I am worried now it might be wrong. Where did you get your info from?
Suse:- I have James Bengamin K(C)earsy being born 15/01/1881 son of Charles and Mary Tookey. You said James B was Charles father. Did you mean that? There are so many James.
Charles father was James Kearsey married to Mary Wood
Charles brother was also James M to Eliza Cooke
Does this help?

hello peter
The marriage info - I found the marriage on freebmd.org.uk - it has the marriage dated in the quarter of Dec 1874 (Dec, Jan or Feb), the only way to be really sure is to order the certificate - the details are Dec 1874 in the district of Rochford index number 4a 381.
