Kent / Missionary school, kent

« on: Monday 09 April 18 15:00 BST (UK) »

Hi,
I have William Robert Dennis, b1853, Middlesex. In 1861 he is a school, I think the census says Missionary School, Lee, Kent, Christchurch Uk. Would this be a private school ? His parents were missionaries so perhaps he was boarding while they were abroad.

I am looking for the marriage of James William Wells, born about 1841, Lewisham, Kent. He married Mary Louisa, possibly Pond, born about 1844 Grenwich. Their first child Louisa, was born in Bermondsy in 1870. I have searched for both births without success.

Essex Lookup Requests / Great uncle Herbert

« on: Saturday 08 July 17 20:30 BST (UK) »

Herbert Harry Dennis, born 1902 Surrey and died 1977 Chelmsford, Essex. In 1911 he was living in Battersea, london. He was my great uncle, but I know little about his life, if he married or had kids.

There is a marriage to Elizabeth Knight in 1927, Camberwell, but can't be sure.

My great aunt Violet Emmeline Glladys Dennis, born 1 April 1908 Greater London. She never married and I believe had a successful career travelling around as a nanny. I have nothing in between her death in Peterborough 1988. Is there any way of finding info about registers for nannies?

My great aunt Violet Emmeline Gladys Dennis, born 1 April 1908, Greater London. She died 1988, Peterborough. She never married and I believe travelled all over as a nanny. I would like to fill in some gaps but have nothing else. Perhaps a register for nannies ?

There are plenty of Hurrells in this area and nearby villages. Would anyone be able to keep an eye out for the above if visiting these graveyards ? I would be very grateful.
