Cambridgeshire / Re: SENNITT family, mostly of Stretham
« on: Tuesday 06 November 18 22:12 GMT (UK)  »
G'Day Corinne,

Thanks for this.  There is no such thing as too much information when researching one'e family, even in he branch of a distant cousin's in-laws.  There is always the possibility of finding another family connection in another generation.

I don't have ready access to the Stretham parish registers (or transcripts) but indexes on the Cambs Family History Society's website suggest to me that the majority of the brides that you mentioned were also natives of Stretham.  In fact I strongly suspect that Alice Jackson was baptized there in 1813.

Cheers,
David.

G'Day Corinne,

Jane Sennitt married James Benstead Whetstone (my 3C3R) at Witchford in 1867.
They had a daughter, Kate Jane, who was born at Wentworth in 1868 and baptized at Witchford in 1869.
The 1870 US census shows the family living in Washington, Indiana.
I have not as yet attempted to pursue their lives any further.

Census records suggest that Jane was born at Stretham c.1834 and that she was a d/o William and Alice.
Can you please confirm this and provide any baptism details?
Also do you know Alice's maiden name?

Cheers,
David.
