Thanks bearkat and Sisterjane. I didn't know there was a Caleb Southon and haven't found birth information yet. I know the father of the Southon brothers was Henry b 1791 in Capel according to the 1841 census, can't find a birth or baptism for him. According to the information you gave to me bearkat Stephen was Henry's father in the will information, I can't find any record of him either. Can anyone help me please.poppyann

Baptisms for Tudeley & Capel 1702 - 1870 are on the IGI as are marriages 1663-1683  & 1702-1812 but I can't see your SOUTHONS. :(
 
There are a couple of Stephen & Henry SOUTHON baptisms on the Marden Index but sadly no dates are given.

You could ask for more details but there is a charge, see:

Thanks again for all of your help. The story was wonderful. I hope you enjoyed it as much as me. The grandfather in the story called Snowdon I think was William. I have seen a copy of the will and he leaves his money to his grandchildren. When doing a search for the birth of William and found one b in Lympne in Kent but I ruled it out thinking it was to far away, After reading the story about Mommy Marsh- should be Romney Marsh I realised it was him after all. Now I can't find it. poppyann

Yes, what an amazing story - how lucky is that ;D

So I guess we know now that John married a Jane FINDLAY - probably in Canada :)
