hi again
i ve been looking into the things you ve shown me,i m not sure about a mary ann pilcher born apr 1819 ,that would have only been 2 months after stephen and elizabeth got married, would that have been usual in those days ??,i also cant find anything saying her mums maiden name and it says it on all the other childrens,so im not sure about her,i have already given the list of children have nt i ?
i ve been looking up thomas harnett too, have you seen the birth for a thomas harnett born 10/3/1727 in st lawence kent,its not that far away,it says his parents are henry and elizabeth harnett,does nt say the mothers maiden name
if this is he then the marrage to elizabeth wooden would be far too early,making him only 15 at that marrage date of 1742,also thats 22 years before elizabeth (arnold) harnett would have been born , i know i can be a right muddle head so please excuse if i ve left something obvious out lol
there is a marrage record ,well 2 actually for thomas harnett to elizabeth vincer,one 26/2/1759 folkston and another to elizabeth vincer but this time its 21/1/1759 in faversham,bit confusing ?, but this date would be more inline with the birth of elizabeth 5 years later ??
i ve also been in touch with some pilchers from america,the lady s grandad and my great grandad were brothers,so that has been interesting,she is sending me a cd of the family history that she has been doing since 1995,its from when stephen pilcher son of elizabeth (arnold) pilcher went over to ireland through the navy,i dont know whether this will interest you,but i ll pass on info if you want it,when i get it,she said it will probs take about 10 days
let me know what you think of the above
also could you tell me if the pilchers and lineage in kent are catholic or not,because i know all the church records are all c of e,but the pilchers in ireland,including stephen from kent all say catholic on them,so am a bit confused over that bit
hope to hear from you soon...........cathie x
