William Peen....abt 1729 Baptism

[MikeR48]

Hi
Could some kind person lookup  which Kent parish in 1729 William Peen was baptised in please,
then hopefully I will be able to find it on cityark (which seems to be up and running again) if its within their coverage area.
Regards
Mike

How do you know he was born in Kent and what else do you know about him?

Hi
There are Peen records of this date in and around Southfleet although haven't found a baptism as yet. There is a marriage of a William Peen and Elizabeth Moor 1752.

There was a baptism that came up on FindMyPast (which I don't have a sub for) which was for 1729
Kent Baptisms, but that no longer comes up ? He married Elizabeth Moor in Southfleet in 1752
and had children, Elizabeth died in 1769 and I can't see anything for William after that, although
I can follow some of the children.

I had seen the reference to the Canterbury entry and it could well be right William, but would have thought North Kent more likely, there are a couple of Williams around the Dover area at the same. time.

Have you tried St Botolphs, Northfleet as this was the major church for this area at this date.

No I have only looked at Southfleet at  the moment but I will try surrounding parishes,
nothing showing on the IGI which can be a good pointer.
