William Welsh/Welch Schoolmaster
« on: Monday 30 October 23 18:45 GMT (UK) »
How can I access any schoolmaster records for William Welch/Welsh Canterbury between 1810 and 1850.Would be interested to know which schools he was a schoolmaster.  Quite a big one but where do I start?
Death is recorded in 1850 at Sturry.

The closest I have is when son George married in 1841 (father still alive) and said was a schoolmaster.  However, George was living in Bethnal Green Road, Mddx when he married.

Maidstone and South Eastern Gazette. dated 16 April 1850

7th April at Sturry Mr. William Welsh, nearly 40 years schoolmaster at the above village aged 77 .

ADDED
He was buried 12th April at Sturry- parish register on FindMyPast

So in 1841 he should be in Sturry.
