Ramsgate 1823 Baptism
« on: Sunday 27 February 11 17:13 GMT (UK) »
Hi
Have found a baptism for a Robert John Smith, 17 AUG 1823, in St Lawrence, Ramsgate, Kent.
If anyone has access to these records could they tell me if an occupation is mentioned for the father please?
Thanks

Sorry the church should be St Lawrence in Thanet, near Ramsgate, Kent.

John Edward SMITH Marriage Reg March 1854 Greenwich, Matilda Gibson CROZIER on same page.

Maybe someone could look this up to confirm Fathers name/occp if Christening info for Robert Henry cant be found.

This may confirm John Snrs Occp from Robert Johns M/C (which I presume you have)

Hi
Thanks Trish and Rosie, unfortunately the info you found rules this baptism out as my Robert John Smith had a father John Smith who was a Block Maker.

Ah well it may help someone else who is googling their Ancestors ;)

When/where/who did your Robert John Marry.

From Census when/where was he born?
Is is the one who is in Glous from 1851 Census on?

Hi
My Robert John Smith was a stoker/fireman/ships engineer who married Jane Ward in 1841 in Milton-next-Gravesend, Kent, and they had several children in Shadwell, Stepney and Gravesend between 1845 and 1865.
I have not been able to trace him for sure in any census except 1841 when he said he was born in Kent. Also, being a mariner he is always away from home. Also I don't know where or when he died, except that his last known child was born 1865 and Jane is a widow by 1871.
Have tried online crew and passenger lists, and FreeBMD - but no luck yet.
Thanks for your help anyway
Helen
