Hi looking for Kidson and Maxwell in London and Kent areas. A John Maxwell may have died in natural disaster like a cyclone in US around 1900.

Hi
I have taken a look for Kidson/Kitson and Maxwell names, there are a lot, do you have any first names to reduce the search,it not really be possible to post all of them,they run into hundreds.
If you have any other info let me know and Iwill take another look for you.

Ethel Mary Maxwell abt 1882 - abt 1909
Sarah Ellen Ada Kidson abt 1861, nurse, matron
Mary Eliza Kidson married John Maxwell (sailor or army) abt 1880
John Kidson methodist cleric early 1800s - 1850
also any chance to try to find a BYRNE - BANCROFT WEDDING about 1865 and son Joseph Byrne
Thankyou so much for your help I have made a few guesses based on freebmd info but befor I have to spend money on guessed certificates I'd love to find some corroberation in another sourse like a census.
John Kidson may have gone to canada some say 1850 some say 1815 to be a missionary? Don't know how to check that.
Thanks 100000000000

Hi Nicky,
You are a hero. Thanks for all the info you gave me. Re Byrne/Bancroft info these are the names I have. Not 100% sure if they are accurate. John Byrne and Sarah Anne Bancroft supposedly Sarah born around 1830 married around 1865 and then migrated to Australia soon after.
Sorry havn't replied sooner I've been out of action due to illness.
You really are a super star.
Rosanne ;D :-* ;) ;D ;D
