Kent Lookup Requests / Re: Kent Lunatic Asylum - BECKFORD

That's a lot to take in with the different names.  I will mull it over and do some more research.  Thank you all for your help.

Thanks for your replies.  His marriage date to Caroline of 1864 presents another puzzle.  His firstborn - a daughter, Eliza Hannah Dean Beckford was born in 1853.
His son William Thomas Skinner Beckford was born in 1866.

The 1851 census looks promising, especially as he was unmarried.  I just can't find him on the 1861 census.

Kent Lookup Requests / Kent Lunatic Asylum - BECKFORD
« on: Sunday 24 November 19 11:04 GMT (UK)  »
David Beckford died on 20 Nov 1868 at Maidstone, St Peter.  His residence is stated as being Kent Lunatic Asylum.  I would like to confirm that he was born circa 1801 probably in Kent.  This seems odd as his wife Caroline Bailey was born circa 1830 in Chiselhurst, Kent.  Perhaps she was his 2nd wife - I don't know.  I was wondering if the Asylum would have details of when he entered the asylum and how old he was.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks

I thought we might have had a link, but there are no Mallarkeys in my family.

Hi Andy

I have found Hugh CARLIN in the 1861 census with wife Catherine, daughters Catherine, Mary Ann, Ellen and a servant Margaret Reilly.

I haven't been able to find a death for wife Ann Carlon, but I have found a marriage of Hugh to a Cathrine Kerr, in Edinburgh on 27th September 1855.  No way of knowing if this is our Hugh's Catherine though.  Can't find a likely birth for her in Midlothian.

I'll keep digging.
Regards

Hi Andy

Thanks for coming back to me.  On my copy of Wiliam's death it shows the name as Carlon.  Could his father have been a dealer in 'soft' goods?  I haven't got any information on Hugh at all.
