Brilliant -it is always good to get info from family.

Just take it steady and systematically work through the info

There's no rush -it won't go away!!!

I'll leave posting more for a while so you can digest this info.

You have a pretty easy to find family -they stayed close - it doesn't always happen that way!!!

If you are unsure about anything -just ask

what is really strange is that my mother has just informed me that we bought one of the family houses in Arthur Street, Grays, in the 1970's and my Great grandmother was still living in Baker Street, Orsett, into the 1980's and then to discover the Finsbury, Kent, connection (I think it is Frindsbury) and we have a house there now! :D

It's quite amazin what draws you to places associated with ancestors

I found my g g grandfather's grave by accident

Visiting a cemetery on mother's day and suddenly heavy rain started - I ran for shelter -head down and went smack into a six foot high headstone. I just stood looking at it in a daze and then realised it was my GG grandparents and a married daughter of theirs - the cemetery was in the next county to where I thought they would be buried!!!!

I think you are correct with Frindsbury
Wrotham has been entered as Rotherham Kent in one census too!!!!
Sometimes the writing is very difficut to read - but then so is mine!!!!!

Been a busy few days as have discovered a completed family tree on my mothers maternal side 9Way family) already done and verified back to 1583 with the family moving from Dorchester in England to Dutchess County, Long Island in America (first records in 1616), through the American War for Independence (where the family split) then our side of the family (the loyalists) received a land grant in Ontario after the war and moved there until my Great-Grandfather came to england in WW1 then married my Great-Grandmother (a Costen in Thurrock) and the rest is history! Now to see what else can be achieved! I am really enjoying this!

Well done - you willl find your tree will never be finished
There' all the siblings and what happened to them to find out about -and all kinds of different resources to explore

I will see if I can find more about Louisa Clark if you wish????

Clarks  research can be quite challenging !!!

Hi Hallsenna well you have got the rooters working overtime, there are a small band of people all over the world who are looking at the Suffolk/Essex/London Cokers if you pm me I will give you the email of Brian Coker in Canada who is running it,in your search round the net do not confuse the Cokers in Devon as being part of the Essex/Suffolk ones .

Best Regards
