Hi DMartin

Think we may be connected as you have 2 of my names in your list.

My great great grandmother Sarah Dunmall bp. West Wickham 28/9/1806, dau. of James & Ann.  She was one of 8 children.  George, the eldest, I believe married and lived at Erith.  Harriet married a Sargeant and her daughter married George's son.  That is off the top of my head as I haven't that tree to hand at present!   :(
Does that fit in your tree at all?
Regards
 Hi Lee,
Yes i think there is a connection , i will pm you.

Hi There,
I am currently a LARKIN (soon to be a POLL  :-[), Charles Larkin was my 3xGreat Grandfather I understand he married Sarah Dadson and had Children (not too sure how many yet) one was called Frank Harper Larkin I am a decendant to him. I was going to take a trip to Cranbrook to have a look through the parish records and look for Charles' gravestone as I live 25 mins from there. Any information will be fantastic - the LARKIN family is quite a mystery to me!

Many thanks

Sarah

Hi Again,

I have also found Charles Larkin had John & Elizabeth Larkin as parents (John was born c1778), which would fit with the witness at his wedding. By the looks of my source, John was married twice to Ann also.

my Larkins came from Benchley in the 1800s.  Did any of your change their name to 'Thomas' as a surname, some of mine did and I can't find out why.

Hello Rosemary

I am aware that some of the Larkin family changed their surname to Thomas when they emigrated to Australia.  I think, but will need to check, that Thomas was the surname of one of the Larkin brides.

I have not found a connection with my branch of the Larkins yet!

I think we may have corresponded about this many years ago?

Trish, I am descended from John Best and Ann Stephens Turner.
Can you give me a link to the tree you found?
