[Chalky (John) White]

Help!!!   I am looking for any relation of George Kent that came to New York in 1857 when he was 8 years old. He came with two Uncles and a Grandfather. I know his mother stopped in england and was supposed to join him later. This didn't happen.

I there are any remaining ancesters still alive I would love to hear from them. Georges' mother was my Great Grandmother I am only two relatives left.  Please contact me Thanks for reading .  John  White

If you have access to Ancestry there is a comprehensive family tree showing Felix and parents plus his death in 1854

George had siblings and Ann remarried after Felix died and had more children.  She died in Adstock in 1899 aged 73

Would be worth your while accessing the tree if you want info on the English side of George’s ancestry
