Thank you so much for looking into this family Lis.
The William and other Kingsmills of Smeeth are related cousins. This William from Brabourne remains a mystery. In the censuses his birthplace is Brabourne 1811/12 and in later ones his daughter Ann (b1854) is shown as the grandchild of Comfort (b1783). Comfort Kingsmill and Rebecca Crayford married in 1814 so I wondered if he was the son from an earlier as yet unknown relationship of Comfort's. Of course his father might not have been listed if William was illegitimate at the time.
