Boxley 1640 - 1678
« on: Monday 13 October 08 08:24 BST (UK) »
Hello

Hopefully someone can help.

I am looking for the birth and marriage of Thomas FURMINGER.

My research suggests he was probably married in Boxley, certainly before 1678, to Joan.

Maidstone Assizes 15 July 1678 - Indictment of Emblyn Ridge of Boxley, spinster, for grand larceny. On 13 June 1678 at Boxley she stole 2 head-dressings (3s) and £5 in money from Thomas Furminger. (endorsed) Thomas Furminger, Joan Furminger, Frances Waymone. True Bill. Guilty; to hand; reprieved after sentence.

His first child was born in Aylesford in 1673, so the marriage might have been 1670-73. This suggest his birth may have been around 1640 - 48.

There is no mention in the Aylesford PR's of his birth or Marriage. The family are in Aylesford right up until 1802 when the first birth occured in Maidstone.

Iam clutching at straws trying to find his birth and Marriage, so any help would be grately appreciated.
