Title: Franklin of Chilham
Post by: Nhoj0471 on Tuesday 28 August 18 07:35 BST (UK)

Hi. Any one with access to Chilham parish registers early to mid 1600s. I am looking for a christening for a Mary Franklin c1650. I know that Mary 19yrs of Chilham married Richard Austen in 1670, and she was the daughter of Elizabeth Franklin. Also looking for a Franklin marriage. I am assuming that Franklin was the married name of Elizabeth.

Any help greatly appreciated

Where does the information come from that the mother of Mary Franklin was Elizabeth.
