Help with Edmund File please
« on: Thursday 07 June 18 22:14 BST (UK) »
   I am trying to track down the origins of Edmund File, born about 1790. He claims in 1851 to have been born in Elmsted, but I can find no likely baptism. His name is open to various interpretations, but I think I have tried most of them. I suppose he may not have been baptised or they may have been non-conformists. Any ideas gratefully received.

  Thank you for that, I had not investigated genealogies. However, it raises more questions than it answers. Born in Elham, baptised in Stowting - I can't find a baptism in either place, and not sure where Monks Horton comes in. There were married in Kingston in 1811.
   I am still wondering about a non-conformist chapel somewhere. Do you think the entry on Familysearch could have come from there? (I have never had to deal with chapel records in my family history.)

hello again
I have stated born elham which is wrong as it is from a church record I take it is a baptism I was baptised twenty miles from place of birth who will know that in a hundred years.
to make matters worse on dusty doc they give them marrying 12 oct 1811 at Kingston as files
but also eliza ann file baptised 8 march 1812 Kingston.
sorry for the typo

   That is my Edmund's son.
   The baptism registers for Elham are on line, and there is no baptism for Edmund.
   "Dusty doc"?? You have lost me there!
