Munson Mills in Poor Law documents
« on: Tuesday 04 January 22 04:29 GMT (UK) »
Wondering if someone can look up in the Essex Poor Law documents for the following person:
Munson Mills
- At age 19 in 1774, Munson became an apprentice farrier to Jona Oddy in Ardleigh, Essex. This was recorded in the apprentice indentures.
- Munson married Jane Wilby at Kirby-le-Soken, Essex on 23rd July 1783.
- Munson and Jane’s first child, a daughter named Jane is believed to have been born in Beaumont. She was baptised in Great Oakley. This child lived just over one month, and was baptised and buried on the same day in Great Oakley on 16th January 1785.
- Around the year 1785, not long after the birth of their first child, Munson and Jane decided to move from the Beaumont area of Essex to Dedham. Family lore is that they required a settlement certificate in order to move.
I am looking for any details from the Settlement Certificate that may assist me with further research.
