Jane Edwards 1806 - 1838 - Siblings & parents?
« on: Thursday 22 December 16 13:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I've been stuck on Jane Edwards for quite some while and was wondering if anyone could help or has found any links to other trees. Janes Edwards was born abt 1806 in or around Wye, Kent. (Most people when tracing her have her as 1811, but this is incorrect). She married John Butcher on the 10th Jan 1829 in Wye, Kent (Stated as a Spinster with John Butcher & Mary Butcher as witnesses).  They had three children before she died. They  were: Edward 1829 at Hinxhill, Charles 1831 at Hinxhill & Ellen 1833 at Smeeth. On the 18th Jun 1838 she died in Smeeth. Address was The Ridgeway, Smeeth (Informant was her husband John, No cause of death on the certificate). She was Buried on the 23rd Jun 1838 at St Mary's Church, Sellindge, Kent. (Stated aged 32 abode Smeeth). John went on and re-married a Frances Tickner in Jul 1839.

I cannot find any records for Jane Edwards in the parish records and have come to a holt for tracing her possible siblings and parents. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

My only source which would suggest Wye is they were married there and were both stated as from the parish. John was baptised in Hinxhill just up the road. Wye may not be her birthplace.

Hi, I don't have this family in my tree but do have Thornby and Hammond from that area.  My Thornby family had a habit of having their babies baptised at Hinxhill even though living elsewhere.  If you would like to see if our lines link please private message me.

Most of the parish registers held at Canterbury have been indexed on Findmypast.  You could also try the Mid Kent Marriage index and Memorial Inscriptions indexed on the Kentarcheaology.org.uk

Or, as I see you are in Kent, a visit to the Kent History centre at Maidstone, where you can view Parish registers.
