James Kew, profession: Yeoman of Ropemakers fields Limehouse
« on: Sunday 07 January 24 10:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi all, looking for any records regarding my 4th great grandfather. James Kew was a yeoman from Ropemakers Fields according to his sons baptism record (Richard Kew). His son Richard was baptised in St Anne's Church Limehouse 25/12/1808. Apart from that I cannot find any marriage or any records of James Kew? Any help would be appreciated thanks :)

The only Richard Kew of the right age that I can see on the censuses in the 1841 census; a bookbinder living in St Pancras, married to Mary. 3 children - Mary, James and Maria. Is this the right man?

It says that he was NOT born in county (Middlesex). I note that there was a gap between his birth and baptism - could his parents have moved into the area in that time?

I also see that he named his 2nd daughter Maria. Looking at Kew children baptised to a James and Mary, there was a family in Fiskerton, Lincs, having children in this time, but I don't think it will be them as the Lincolnshire baptisms span either side of Richard's baptism. But there was also a Maria Kew, d/o James and Mary, baptised at the age of 21 months in Westminster on 1 Jan 1806. Any connection?

That is the right Richard Kew as I have done lots of research of him and his family below, it's his dad James Kew that I am struggling to find records on such as marriage. Many thanks

The Kew family from up north in Linc's isn't a connection to me as far as I know.
