Kent Lookup Requests / Re: piece numbers for Swan's yard Milton.1841

Hi to Newfy , Dave and Iris ,

What a result !!!!    Wow....am so amazed !! As Newfy said..  " amazing what's waiting to be found "

One year in clink for the old girl ..a few months for the younger plus 3 years reformatory ....I never imagined something like that ...

Is it still possible to access the Times Archives ?? I could a couple of years ago but forgotten how...

Iris , on the 41 there are quite a number of families living in Swans Yard...you have seen it ...have you any idea of what the layout might have been ..quite cramped , do you think ??

Am just trying to picture it....I understand that it might have been a pub yard... I found a ref to a Swan pub in Pigotts for 1820s ..wondered if it was the same one ..

Anyway , thanks to all for your help...much appreciated..

                             Joyce..

Hi , Newfy ,

Thanks again ...I have Matilda Emma's birth cert ...they were then living in William St Poplar...but as I said before it's the parents whom I can't pin down.....I'm beginning to wonder if they left London...even so , I still cant find them anywhere..

Someone did tell me that some records were lost during ww2 and I'm beginning to think that maybe theirs were amongst them.....dont know how true it is ...

As for the mother popping back to Kent for the 1843 birth ..could be....because she is in 2 places on the 51 ..in London with the kids and in Kent with her mother and bros and sisters...how she managed that I'm not sure ...

   a puzzler....   Joyce...

Hello , Newfy ,

Here goes....William Taw born 1814 Chatham , Matilda Taw nee Tyler born 1815 , Chatham ..

Children...John William Taw born 1839 dist Gravesend ,

George Frederick Taw born  1841 reg in June quarter 1841..Gravesend.

I have them on the 51 in London ..but Henry Taw was born in 1843 in Milton Gravesend ..so they were still in Kent in 1841 ..

After the 51 the trail goes cold for the parents  William and Matilda Taw.. having already mentioned that I have no marriage record for them there are also no death records !!!

I trawled up to 1900 with no luck ,   maybe they are still alive  !!!!!!!
                           Thanks ,

                                     Joyce...

Hello , Newfy ,

Thanks to you I have found Swan's Yard on number 460 but my people aren't on it ..they were there in 1843 (son's birth cert )... Think I'll have to send for elder son's birth cert born 1839..

I have one huge problem with my Taw family.... I have parish records ( parents ' baptisms ) but no way can I find the family on the 41....Are the records complete or were some spoiled.?? .I know that some of the images are very indistinct..

Cant even find parents' marriage ...have searched cityark Chatham 1833-1837 and also for Milton...

I need a magic wand...have been looking for 2 or 3 years...Taw family  so elusive...

                            Thanks for your info and interest,
                                            regards ,
                                                       Joyce..

hello , Newfy ,

Thanks for the info...at least I can trawl thro those numbers...I find the the 41 disc info not easy to follow , if you get my meaning...no streets listed ..just a hard slog..

                               regards ,
