Thank you for adding pieces to this puzzle. Taken me years to get this far an with everyone assisting with their expertise the picture of this family is coming together.

Now what about this info that was sent to me.

Emily Grace BLECHYNDEN of Tenterden spinster to marry Daniel BOYS of Tenterden bachelor - licence to marry granted 20 Jan 1837.
1851 Census states Edward Boys head of family with Emily Boys?

Seems Edward died before 1861 Census. Any death dates for him?

Are there records for parents and siblings for Sarah Blechynden nee Harrison?

Sorry made a mistake ther will fix it. It is late here and I have just done a 12hr shift at work.

Nothing I can find on Sarah Harrison/Blechynden unfortunately.

The 1861 Census I meant that Matilda Boys is with Sarah aged 85.

I have no idea how Daniel Boys fits in unless she was widowed and married 2 borthers Or he was Daniel Edward Boys and preferred Edward.

So was Harrison transported or a emigrant to Australia?

Harrison arrived per" Minstrel" 0n 30 Jan 1830, as a carpenter with his cousin, George Blechynden.  Some sources state: 20 Feb 1830.

The Blechynden family tended to used and repeat the male christian names down the family lines.
So the above John Blechynden isnt the one that married Sarah Harrison. He is his great uncle John.
No research that I know of has been carried out on Sarah's line as the Blechynden line has extensive research. I may be wrong and if so would like contact with those to assist with Sarah's family line.
Great to have the assistance when Anc is back on line.
