COMPLETED with thanks Where in Kent
« on: Sunday 29 July 12 05:31 BST (UK) »
Could one of the people with better eyesight and better skills than I, see if you can find out where in Kent Mary Waters, neice, was born?

I can read the Kent OK, but beyond that......

I can read my own writing, but this one has me stumped. :P

In grateful anticipation

I think you might be right PrueM

As the census was at Salehurst Sussex, and having looked at G***** maps, it looks highly likely that it is

Horsmonden looks to be about 6 miles east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, and Etchingham where her uncle lives is about 10 miles south west of Royal Tunbridge Wells, so it would be quite possible for her to be there.

With grateful thanks

All I have to do now, is work out how she fits into the family :P

Have to find out Thomas Catt's siblings to find out more.

Could prove interesting ::)
