[Carol Kent]

Would anyone know the parents of Mary Ann Pack born in Bedfordshire in 1852 died in Kent in 1927.
She Married William Thomas Sears who was born in 1853 in East Farleigh Kent,
They married in 1875 in Aylesford Kent.
They are my Gt Grandparents and I haven't been able to find Mary Ann's parents. Thank you. Carol.

she was born Stotfold, Beds

and in 1861 there is in the household of Robert KIDD age 54, a publican his wife Elizabeth age 49, Staymaker, a Mary age 9 born Stotfold, and described as a niece.

in 1871 in Aylesford are

William PACK age 47, born Biggleswade, Beds. labourer at ironworks
Charlotte wife, age 43     ditto
Robert son, 15, Ag Lab,  born Warwickshire, New Belton
Elizabeth dau 9, scholar born Aylesford Kent,
William son, 6    ditto                 ditto

1861 in Aylesford are
William a Brickmaker age 36 and just son John age 11 Ag Lab b Stotfold

while in Dartford is
Charlotte with
John 11
Robert 5 b Warwickshire

1851 in Stotfold
William (Brickmaker/Journeyman) and Charlotte with John b Biggleswade age 1.  (John's age indexed as 7, but must be 1 see 1861)

in 1851 They are right next door to Robert KIDD mentioned earlier whose household includes 2 of his own children and his mother-in-law Mary WALKER age 68, a House Proprietor b Campton, Beds
so his wife Elizabeth = Elizabeth WALKER, Charlotte's sister


1881 Aylesford
just William senior, Charlotte and son William age 16.

1891 - Maidstone
Charlotte is mother of William who is head of house and his wife Sarah 26, a paper mill hand.
possible death Charlotte Maidstone reg. 1894
and possible William 1887, Malling

[mckha489]

1841
Mary Walker (widow, crossed out) has Charlotte with her and also an apparent son David all born in county.
Plus Sarah KIDD age 2, who is I think her grandchild, dau of Robert and Elizabeth the publicans.

If you buy the marriage of William Pack and Charlotte Walker you will have Charlotte's father's name. But I think it was probably Benjamin

baptism of Charlotte 24 June 1827, dau of Benjamin and Mary WALKER

[mckha489]

Probable marriage Robert KIDD to Elizabeth WALKER 22 May 1836, Biggleswade

Robert KIDD died May 1862 and had a will proven April 1863
Executors, Widow Elizabeth and his brother Edward KIDD, Coachman,  of Croydon
