Fright family in Kent c1700
« on: Tuesday 25 January 11 09:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I am interested in the Fright family http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,508816.0.html refers to a post I made seeking information in St Nicholas at Wade, but I have decided it would be better to raise a specific query with Fright as the subject to enable me to widen my search in this area.

My first query is:

Abraham Fright & Ann Payne/Pain - from the IGI married on 8th Feb 1813 St Lawrence and also 8 Feb 1714 St Mary, Minster - please can someone look up this marriage for me and confirm which date it was or is it banns on the earlier date and marriage on the later date?

Thanks in anticipation ...

I've found three FRIGHT burials in Faversham, an Abraham, & two infants called Pleasant.
Any use to you?

I've just found this thread, I have the Frights in my tree.
I have got back to John Fright b. about 1685 who married Pleasant Johncock in 1707 in Elmstone, Kent.  He has a son called Abraham b. 1710 so I would imagine that your Abraham is John's brother (I don't have any siblings or parents for him yet).
None of my Frights are in Faversham, they seem mainly to be in Elmstone, Birchington, Monkton.
Pleasant seems to have been a recurrent girl's name in the family,  apart from Pleasant Johncock I have found a Pleasant Fright b. 1719 and another one b. 1752, niece of the earlier Pleasant who was christened at St. Nicholas-at-Wade in 1720.
Hope this is of interest.

Hi Bevj

Thank you for this information.  What yous ay is extremely interesting!  I havent been able to research the Fright family any further and the Parish records on Familysearch do not cover this period I am looking for at Elmstone.

I don't know, also, how much the name Pleasant would have been used in those times?

Thanks in anticipation ...

Westwood:

Sorry I haven't been able to find my John's parents or siblings as yet.
Have you seen on familysearch another Abraham Fright christened in 1703 in Ickham, Kent, son of Abraham and Elizabeth?  Again, too young to be your Abraham who married Ann Pain but it just shows that Abraham was a recurring name.
I've never encountered the Christian name Pleasant before but nothing surprises me.  In the Kent side of my tree apart from Fright, I have found the surnames Startup, Sheepwash and Johncock  ;D 
I'll let you know if I uncover anything.
