Dryland family of Hinxhill, Kent

[Loupy]

Good afternoon
I am researching the children of William Dryland b1807 Hinxhill and his wife Sarah Godden-Smith b1805 Wye (maiden name Godden). 

I have Ann Dryland b?1837 Hinxhill.  Have her on census 1841 with her parents but then nothing!

Frances Dryland b1833 Hinxhill.  She is on census as having married a Charles Dunkin but I cannot find any marriage for them.

Margaret Dryland b1837 Hinxhill.  I have three possible marriages for her - a William Pilcher in 1858 Hinxhill, a John Whitewood in 1853 Hinxhill and Daniel Austen Pay 1854 Wye.  To Whom did she marry?   

I just wondered if anyone could help me with these three to start with.  Many thanks for all your continuing help.

Did Ann marry Thomas JORDAN in 21st June 1856 at Sellinge?

In 1861 Ancestry have a Margaret Petcher of Hinxhill, 25, Visitor to William Thornby in Wye with kids, William A, 1, and Sarah A (looks like 4 mths) born in Folkestone

However FindmyPast reckon it's Harriet Pitcher, Sister, 28

Piece 516 Folio 33, Pg 13 Hse 61

If you're looking at the image on Ancestry, good luck! But FindMyPast's isn't much better.

Alternatively, there is an entry on Familysearch for the marriage with Daniel Austen Pay on film 1836328 with consistent census entries from 1881 onwards (born in Hinxhill 1835/1836)

I can have a look at that film in a couple of weeks or so

[StevieSteve]

Film for the John Whitewood and William Pilcher marriages is 1866649 so we should be able to clear Margaret up

[StevieSteve]

BTW in your post you have Ann born in 1837, the same year as Margaret.

From the census it looks as though she's aged 11 ie b ~1830

[StevieSteve]

... which puts her possibly as a servant to Thomas Philpott in Canterbury in 1851

which then puts the marriage in Canterbury 1851 Q4 5 159 in the frame

Find my Past say that is to William Fedarb and while Ann Fedarb is transcribed as born Canterbury in 1861 is shown as Hinxhill in 1871

[StevieSteve]

... and 1881

Potential death in Elham 1894 Q3 2a 515 aged 64
