KITTO look-up/help please
« on: Friday 28 March 14 21:38 GMT (UK) »
Am trying to find information on a WILLIAM KITTO born c1785. He married an ANN TRINDALL in 1807, in the parish of 'St Paul, Deptford, Kent'. They had 2 children,  Thomas William Kitto b.1811 and Sarah Elizabeth Kitto b.1814, both born in Deptford. I know nothing else, so any information would be great! Especially anything that suggests who his parents were!
 :) All help appreciated!!

Birth year may be wrong, but marriage to ANN TRINDALL in 1807 is definitely 'my' WILLIAM KITTO. He may have had a brother called James too.

I see that you have another recent thread in which you say William was born c1788 and may have had a brother James about the same age, but again the source is not clear.  If the marriage and production of 2 children are the only confirmed sightings of William then he could in theory have been any age from teens to relative dotage in 1807.

If you know more then it will help us to help you if all information is provided. Does his marriage record show his previous marital status; do his children's baptisms indicate his occupation?

What if anything is known about Ann or James?

The information on birth date and possibility of a brother James, came from a single name study conducted by someone else. I have managed to confirm all other connections, leading to William and Ann Trindall, but can find nothing before them. The 'James' may or may not have been a brother, and all I know of him is that he was married to a Mary, and that they had a son James Samuel Kitto in 1809 in Dover Kent. But, as I say, there is no confirmation that James was William's brother.
William Kitto and Ann Trindall did have a Thomas William who married Mary Ann Hewlet, and their children were those listed above (My gg grandfather was their Thomas W Kitto).
Kitto, Skeats, Sellen, Sutherland, Anderton, Hooton/Hooten, McLure, Trevor, Hawkins, MacKay, Murray.

The Baptism records for both of his children state William's  occupation as 'mariner'.
I don't have access to the marriage record, but the banns say that he is a bachelor and she a spinster.

William was still alive in 1830, when he was a witness at the marriage between Thomas William Kitto and Mary Ann Hewlett, but I don't know when or where he died.
