Hi again it was a Ragen(t) or Bagen(t) not Regan(t) !

Their is a death of a James Frederick Ragent in June 1878 Gravesend 2a 246 aged 38

Also another one a Ragen but he was 95!

The finding of the maiden name of Day is interesting as as you may have noted in my post re William Cramp the Shoemaker, I was having a good deal of trouble locating a Mary Ann in 1851 and 1861?!

Also how do we know he was not born in Australia, is there any mention of him being born in England and when/where?

Hello, have had a good look at what you have sent.
There are 2 1851 Census's entries 1 for William CRAMP & 1 for Hannah FINCH
In William's  is listed a Mary 41 & Hannah's 47 (Widow) is at the Union Workhouse with I presume the 3 younger of their children.  Hannah in 1841 Census was 30..so a little elastic with age or is it possible this could be a badly written '1'
The elder 2 girls were ?working for William therefore I presumed they stayed with him!
I am assuming they separated as William remarries in 1859 (see your entry 28 Aug).  It is preferable to say "widow" than left husband-would this be correct?  Is there any marriage record of William CRAMP & Hannah FINCH?
Also if Hannah Finch(47) is the 1851 death William may have taken on the children again.

Re the Stills (30 Aug).  You had not given me this info previously

Also found an article in the Brisbane Courier Mail in April 1938 Albert Edward Shersby is is promoted to Sub Inspector in the Qld Police Force.  In the article it states he joined in 1909,  the earliest I can find him here in Oz.  He Marries Johanna Duff in Brisbane  1912 Ref is Qld BMD 1912/C1769 Cheers C

Hi again, I recall looking up the baptisms for the 2 eldest Cramp girls their mother was a Mary, will fill in later unless you can spot on Family Search or sks finds not just them but the other children!
It also may be better if you split Albert Edward Shersby onto the Australian board, with ref to this thread or his possible parents in the UK

Ruth Cramp 17th November 1833 Maidstone
Rosanna Cramp 22nd March 1835 Maidstone
Rachel Cramp 1st January 1837 Maidstone
George Cramp 5th November 1848 Maidstone
Robert Cramp 5th November 1848 Maidstone
Possible death Rachel Cramp Sept qtr 1837 Maidstone 5 226
All baptisms Father William Mother Mary
The second 1851 is a Hannah Fidge not Finch or so it looks, and Williams wife in 1851 is a Mary?
Re re-marriage in 1859 possible death, Mary Cramp Dec qtr 1857 Maidstone 2a 273
William aged 60 Martha aged 50 Robert 22 in Marylebone Middx in 1871 census ref RG10/159/64/25 in 1881 William and Martha RG11/145/27/45 No sign of Robert?

Death William Venner Cramp Dec qtr 1885 Marylebone 1a 392 aged 76
