4301	The first ancestor of the Girouard family was named François. He was born in France about 1621 and he arrived in Acadia during the 1640's. François marrried Jeanne Aucoin in 1647. They had five children. GIROUARD dit LA VARANNE, François, came from France with his wife Jeanne Aucoin, according to two depositions, one made by his great-grandson Pierre Richard (Doc. inéd., Vol. II, p. 191), and another made by Louis Courtin, husband of his great-great-granddaughter Marie-Josèphe Martin (ibid., Vol. III, p. 27). Both of these depositions erroneously call the Girouard ancestor Jacques, instead of François, probably because the deponents presumed that he had borne the same first name as his elder son, to whom they were both connected. François is the name that one finds, however, in three Acadian censuses and in his younger son’s marriage record in the register of Beaubassin (see DGFA-1, pp. 718-719).

4304	The following information was received from Adrienne Rosher who is descended from William Kennett's brother, Gilbert William, and is also a distant cousin to me through her Ann Judge. William Kennett and Louisa James married on 17 Oct 1829 - presumably in a joint marriage with his brother, Richard Kennett and Phoebe Weatherall, as the details are the same. William and Louisa had a rather sad time as none of their children reached the age of majority. In 1851 William and Louisa were living at 20 Common, Dunkirk. William was aged 43 and an agricultural labourer. William's sister, Sarah aged 57, was living with them. William died on 4 Mar 1881 "near the Woodmans Hall Inn" in Dunkirk aged 73, of a stroke. He was a farm labourer. M. A. Foreman from Boughton was present or registered the death. William left a Will written in 1874, proved to his wife, Louisa, leaving under GB1,000. He left cottages to William and James Kennett who were the sons of his "late brother, Richard". Both William and James were living in the U.S.A.. William also left a legacy to Richard Kennett of Graveney, son of his dead brother, Richard, to be given after the death of his wife, Louisa. He left legacies also to John Kennett, hairdresser of Deal (Adrienne's ancestor) and George Kennett, station master of Adisham (two sons of his late brother, Gilbert William Kennett). Legacies as well to Sarah Fowle wife of Henry Fowle and the daughter of his late brother Richard Kennett, and to various members of his wife's family. Most of legacies were for GB50 but were not to be paid until after Louisa's death. The second child of William Kennet and Louisa (nee James), also named Louisa, died at age 17 of tuberculosis. Her aunt, Sarah James, registered the death.	JAMES, Louisa (I4673)
4305	The following information was received from Adrienne Rosher, who is the descendant of Woldemar Ohme Kennett, a grandchild of Anne Judges and Gilbert William Kennett, and therefore a distant cousin to me through the Milsted ancestral line. Gilbert William Kennett was a post boy, working from the Ship Inn in Faversham from the time of the birth of his first son, John, in 1815 until sometime between 1825 and 1828. At that time, Gilbert became a hostler at that same inn. By 1830 Gilbert had become a publican. The Ship Inn was situated in Market Street, Faversham. A public pump stood in the passageway beside the house - this was known as St. Crispin's Well. This pub was the local posting station. Adrienne's assumption is that Gilbert and his family moved to Brompton, Gillingham sometime during the 1830s to take over management of the Red Lion pub there. The innkeepers list recorded him as a licensed victualler running that inn from 1839 to 1841 but as no licences exist to prove this, she suspects that he was actually running the Red Lion for longer than two years (In 1851 he was in Brompton and stated that he was a licensed victualler. Ann (nee Judges) died on 27 Aug 1840 aged 47 of Erinpelas which is apparently a very nasty sort of throat infection, which, today, would be cured by a course of antibiotic treatment. The family were then living at Brompton, near Gillingham. Gilbert married for a second time, Sarah Wood (nee Johnson) (she died 15 June 1854 at Gillingham). On the 1841 census Gilbert was recorded as living with Sarah, listed as his wife, and with Caroline, Mary, George and Henry - his children by Anne (nee Judges). Gilbert and Sarah Wood married at Gillingham parish church by licence on 30 August 1842!. Sarah was a widow. Gilbert gave his father's name as Thomas, a labourer. Gilbert was the landlord of the Golden Lion Pub in the High Street at Gillingham from 1838 until 1851. In 1851 Gilbert and Sarah were living at 54 High Street, Gillingham. He was 59 years old and a licenced victualler. His wife, Sarah, was 57. Living with them was a Dinah Wood, Gilbert's step-daughter. Gilbert died on 15 June 1854 at 40 Briton Street, Gillingham, aged 63 of general debility. The death was registered by his doctor. Sarah, Gilbert's second wife, died on 9 Jan 1857, again of general debility for many months. She was living at Pembroke Place, Chatham. The same doctor registered her death.	JUDGES, Anne (I2733)
4306	The following information was received from Ida Calder in Pensacola, Florida, a grand-daughter of Edith Duncan: "Just reviewing the info you sent this morning. Alfred James Deacon was married 26 Oct 1896 to Edith Duncan in Faversham, but he must have come to America soon after that because Annie, his oldest daughter by Edith Duncan, was born in 1898, Alfred J., Jr. 1900 and my mother Ethel 1902 and Clara in 1903 etc. I know that he went back a few times to visit. He resided at 75 West St, which was Charlotte Hutchings address at the time of his marriage to Edith. She lived at 57 West Street." The family lived in Amherst, New Hampshire for approximately 5 years prior to Edith's death. Prior to that time Edith lived in Milford, New Hampshire. Death certificate of Edith D. Deacon is very sparse on her parents details. The only known information was that her maiden surname was Duncan and that her father had been a fisherman. Edith's date of death is recorded as 27 November 1932 at age 55 years, 2 months and 27 days. Birthplace recorded is England and date of birth as being 30 August 1877. She was of white colour and married at the time of her death. Her occupation is given as housewife and cause of death as chronic diabetic for a duration of years. The death certificate was issued by the State of New Hampshire number DO541968 on 1 Dec 2000. An Ellis Island passenger record shows Edith Duncan arriving at New York on 20 August 1894 having arrived via the ship "Berlin" which set sail from England at Southampton. She was 16 years old at that time.	DUNCAN, Edith (I2196)

4308	The following is information received from Adrienne Rosher who is a descendant of Woldemar Ohme Kennett, the brother of this John. John was probably apprenticed to a firm of hairdressers run by the Delo family in West Street Faversham. At the time of his marriage to Esther Mary Bax in 1840 he was living at 60 Beach Street, which is on the sea front, in Deal. Esther was living in Lower Street Deal. The parish church was St. Leonard's, Upper Deal at that time. Mary Ann Kennett, John's sister witnessed the wedding. He was a hairdresser as well as being a toy dealer and Life Assurance Agent. He was also elected churchwarden of St. Leonards in 1850. After John's marriage in 1840, the family moved to 187 Lower Street, Deal. In 1850 the address was 10 Lower Street but that may have been the same house, just renumbered. Later, the name of Lower Street was changed to High Street. Esther died 18 Dec 1859 aged 40 of a diseased heart. She died just 12 days after her last child's birth, Alice. There is a memorial on Esther's grave at St. Leonards, Church Deal which reads: "Sacred to the memory of Wiliam Bax, eldest son of John and Esther Mary Kennett, who died March 4 1848 aged 6 years also of Gilbert John who died March 5, 1849 aged 11 months and lies interred in the cemetery and also Esther Mary the beloved wife of John Kennett who died suddenly December 18, 1859 aged 40 years. Put your trust in the Lord." There is also a headstone in Hamilton Road Cemetery which reads: "In memory of Esther Mary the loving wife of John Kennett died December 18, 1859 aged 40 years Also John Kennett died January 21, 1891 aged 76 years." John remarried on 16 Jan 1861 in St. George's Church, Deal, to Emma Friend, a spinster of full age and a dealer in fancy goods. Her father was a pilot, Stephen Friend. John and Emma had 4 children. In 1881 John and Emma were living at 192 High Street, Deal. He was a hairdresser employing 10 people and Emma was listed as "Berlin Repository Keeper". Daughter, Caroline, was their housekeeper. Also recorded on the 1881 census with John was his son-in-law, Henry O. Harding, and his granddaughter, Mabel A. Harding, aged 9 years. Henry Harding was a hairdresser's assistant aged 32. John Kennett died aged 76 on 21 January 1891 of liver disease while living at 21 Blenheim Road, Deal. Emma died aged 83 on 8 June 1909 at 5 Church Road, Dover. Caroline Emily, Emma's step-daughter, was in attendance. In his Will, made in 1889, John left GB5.5 to Emma, GB3.3 to Caroline and GB2.2 to each of his five daughters - Harriet, Esther, Edith, Alice and Cecilia. he also remembered his granddaughter, Mabel Annie Harding, leaving her the same amount of money as most of his daughters. The main estate went to Emma. Its gross value was GB336.3.2 and net value GB142.14.3. There is a tall pointed headstone in Hamilton Road Cemetery, Deal, which reads: "In loving memory of Emma Kennett. Widow of the late John Kennett of Deal, died at Dover 18 June 1909 aged 83 years Also Alfred Friend Kennett, second son of the above died 9 Apr 1885 aged 20 years."	KENNETT, John (I2745)

The name has been in Scotland since at least the thirteenth century. The name is seen in Orkney from the earliest days of Scottish rule, and in Shetland from at least 1543; Traditions: The ancestor of the present participant was Rev. Robert GRAY who studied in Glasgow in 1695, was licenced to preach in Hamilton, Lanarkshire 20 June 1700, he travelled to Shetland in 1702 and was ordained Minister of Nesting, Lunnasting, and Whalsay 29 July 1703. Family tradition records that Rev. Gray may have had a number of illegitimate children beyond the 8 "official" children; Earliest Known Paternal Ancestor: Robert GRAY, born Nesting, son of the above Rev. Robert GRAY and Margaret SINCLAIR; DNA Matches: There are 43 exact 12 / 12 matches in the FTDNA customer database, making it a fairly common haplotype. There is one high resolution match of 23/25 with a SHELTON. The significance of this match is unknown. Looking at the Haplogroup Database, Denmark and Germany figure prominently in the assortment of matches; without the usual matches to Spain, Portugal and Ireland that is typically seen in Celtic / Pictish signatures. Even taking into account sample size, the preponderance of matches are to England; Comments: If using the Haplogroup Database in relation to the traditional origins of the surname, plus the positive result for the Y marker S21, the data is consistent with a family whose origins are in England - Norman or Anglo - Saxon being likely. Y-DNA haplogroup R is mainly represented in two lineages. Lineage R1a is thought to have originated in the Eurasian Steppes north of the Black and Caspian Seas. It is associated with the Kurgan culture, known for the domestication of the horse (approximately 3000 B.C.E.). This lineage is currently found in central and western Asia, India, and in Slavic populations of Eastern Europe. A well-known individual of the R1a lineage is Somerled founder of Clan Donald. Lineage R1b originated prior to the end of the last ice age where it was concentrated in refugia in southern Europe and Iberia and is the most common in European populations. It is especially common in the west of Ireland where it approaches 100% of the population. This haplogroup contains the Atlantic modal STR haplotype.

4310	The hunt for William Maurice or any possible descendants is finally over. Death certificate issued 20 May 2004 under number DYA348353 has confirmed that William Maurice died on 7 February 1916 at the Warneford Hospital, Leamington, Warwickshire, England. Inasmuch as his sister, E. A. French of 26 Campion Terrace, Leamington, was the witness for the death it is highly improbable that William Maurice died leaving any issue. This has been further confirmed by the dismal and negative results of a marriage index search for the years 1901 through 1910 and 1913 through 1915. William Maurice did not have a happy existence, apparently.

4311	The incorporation of Hamburg into the French Empire on February 13, 1811 led to the dissolution of the Senate and the introduction of the French municipal constitution on July 4, 1811. This created the function of a municipal council and a mayor as administrative officials. After the French troops had withdrawn, the records of the Mairie were transferred to the city archives, where they were almost completely destroyed in the city fire of 1842. The stock is mainly made up of three parts: the completely preserved civil status register, the documents on requisition services by the townspeople and the books of the municipal treasury. It also contains files on the following administrative branches: military service, police, construction, trade, grain management, lottery, civil guard, military hospitals, billeting and troop supply, partly in French, partly in German. The retroconversion of the data took place in the years 2010-2012.

Annotated inventory overview: Until 1624, a tithe was deducted from all inheritances that left the city area. In that year, the requirement to pay decimation money was extended to all inheritances in which the testator and heir were separated by more than two degrees of kinship. This tax, which was abolished in 1817 for the states of the German Confederation, gradually developed into an inheritance tax. The tithe office collected the decimation money and administered the inheritances accruing to the city, kept wills and secured the rights of absent or unknown heirs. In 1869 the tithe office was renamed the inheritance office, which was succeeded by the district court in 1900. The inheritance office was abolished in 1906. The order is divided as follows: minutes and reports, office administration, inheritance matters (general and individual cases). ============================================================================= website for addressbooks in Hamburg https://agora.sub.uni-hamburg.de/subhh-adress/digbib/doasearch?sa1=fromDate&sv1=1780&sa2=toDate&sv2=1830&sa3=extension&sv3=Hamburg&sa4=part&sv4=DirectoryPersonsCompanies&sa5=alphabeticalSegment&sv5=bodeker&submit=Suchen https://agora.sub.uni-hamburg.de/subhh-adress/digbib/view?did=c1:147503&sdid=c1:147530&hit=96 Hamburg address book for the year 1805 »Directory of persons and companies: Fourth section.

This wood building was the second church in Hamburg, after the Cathedral of Hamburg. In 1335, some years before the onslaught of the Black Death , construction on a new brick building began. The structure was to be a three-naved hall church in the typical North German Brick Gothic style. This building stood until the middle of the 19th century, undergoing changes, expansions, and withstanding several partial destructions. The tower, which was erected in 1517, burned down in 1589. The tower built to replace it collapsed in 1644. The last tower of the old Nikolai church was designed by Peter Marquardt . The Marquardt tower had a height of 122 meters and with its characteristic dome was a landmark of the city and jewel of its skyline. As the center of one of the four Hamburg parishes, Nikolai's church was heavily involved in all the theological debates that were fought out in the city, especially during the Reformation . After the minister Henning Kissenbrügge had resigned in 1524, the residents chose as minister Johannes Bugenhagen, a profiled Reformer and confidant to Martin Luther . The conservative city council was able to prevent his appointment by making Kissenbrügge stay. However, they could not stop the general wave of elected Lutheran ministers in Hamburg; in St. Nikolai, Johann Zegenhagen was appointed after Kissenbrügge's final departure. The Reformation was completed peacefully, and in 1528 Bugenhagen appeared in Hamburg and became the preacher at St. Nikolai. He is known for establshing a church order in Hamburg which regulated finances and other church affairs such as the school curriculum. This order continued for 200 years. The old Nikolaikirche was the first large public building to burn in the great fire of May 1842. The destruction of the Nikolaikirche is described by chroniclers as a particularly moving event for the citizens. It was the first large building to burn, and was an indication of how catastrophic the fire would become. On 5 May the noon service held by preacher Wendt, who stood in for the minister Carl Moenckeberg, had to be cut short and ended with an intercessory prayer for the saving of the church. One obviously did not count on the loss of the church as most art treasures were not saved. The spire was engulfed by the fire at about four o'clock in the afternoon. Despite desperate efforts, it was not possible to contain the fire due to the equipment of the day, which did not allow water to be carried in sufficient quantity to the heights of the tower. It finally collapsed, setting the nave on fire and burning it completely. Neo-gothic construction Shortly after the fire, the church was rebuilt again. In 1843, a so-called Shilling Collection was started, and in 1844 there was an architectural competition, won by the architect Gottfried Semper (a native of nearby Altona ) with the draft of a Roman domed structure. His design, however, was not realized, as it did not fit into Hamburg’s townscape and shortly before this time, the construction of the mediaeval Cologne cathedral in 1842 had led to a Gothic revival in Germany. Hamburg’s medieval cathedral had been demolished in 1805. The English architect George Gilbert Scott , who was an expert for the restoration of medieval churches and an advocate of the gothic architectural style, was commissioned to devise a new design. He designed an 86 meter-long nave , with a 28 meter-high vault. The architecture was strongly influenced by French and English gothic styles, though the pointed spire is typically German. The amount of sculptures made from sandstone in the interior and on the spire was unusual. The new church was built to the southeast, a short distance from the old location, where the Neue Burg (New Castle) had once stood. The construction started in 1846, and on 27 September 1863 the church was consecrated. The 147.3 meter-high spire was finished in 1874. At that time, the Nikolaikirche was the highest building in the world until the completion of the cathedral of Rouen in 1876. Second to the TV tower, the Nikolaiturm is still the second highest building in Hamburg. World War II The clearly visible spire of the Nikolaikirche served as a goal and orientation marker for the pilots of the Allied Air Forces during the extensive air raids on Hamburg. On 28 July the church was heavily damaged by aerial bombs. The roof collapsed and the interior of the nave suffered heavy damage. The walls began to show cracks, yet they as well as the spire, did not collapse. After World War II The basic structure of the gothic church remained intact to a large extent and reconstruction was a realistic option. Nevertheless, it was decided to demolish the nave while leaving the spire untouched. As the surrounding of the church was no longer a residential area, a new St. Nikolai was built in the district of Harvestehude . In 1951 the nave was finally demolished and the rubble was partially used for the reinforcement of the banks of the river Elbe. The loss of a valuable gothic revival architectural monument was regretted by many, but after the war there were other priorities as far as reconstruction was concerned. Contrary to the Michaeliskirche the Nikolaikirche was not regarded as one of Hamburg’s important landmarks. The spire and some remainders of the wall were preserved as a memorial against the war, but were not cared for for several decades and they consequently gradually decayed. This changed in 1987, when the Rettet die Nikolaikirche e.V. foundation began to restore the existing fabric of the building and erected a so-called "place of encounters" (a room for events and exhibitions) in the crypt. It attempts to salvage the pieces of rubble that were removed in 1951, and was, for example, able to reclaim some rubble from the destroyed nave from the river Elbe in November 2000. A reconstruction of the church, as it was done with the Frauenkirche in Dresden , is not intended. However, a 51-bell carillon was installed in 1993 as a memorial. Since 1 September an elevator has taken visitors to a 75.3 metre-high platform inside the spire to enjoy history panels and a panoramic view over Hamburg and in particular the nearby Speicherstadt (City of Warehouses). ~Census records of Pinneberg, Rantzau and Herzhorn in Schleswig-Holstein which were under Danish control at the time of the 1835 census.

4315	THE MANOR OF BEKEHURST, alias SHORNECOURT, Stanford, lay somewhere in, or near this parish; for by the Book of Aid, levied anno 20 Edward III. it appears, that the heirs of Walter de Shorne paid aid for it, as the eighth part of a knight's see, which the said Walter before held in Bokehurst of John de Criell, as of his manor of Westenhanger. In king Henry VIII.'s reign, this manor was in the possession of Humphry Gay, gent. but in 1613 it was become the property of Sir Thomas Hardres, who that year levied a fine of it; but where it is situated, or who have possessed it since, I have not, with all my eldeavours, been able to discover.

4316	The manor of Gatton, Surrey is described in the Domesday book as, "Herfrid holds Gatone of the Bishop (of Baieux). Earl Lofwin held it, when it was assessed at 10 hides: now, at 2-1/2 hides. The arable land amounts to 5 carucates. There are in demesne 2 carucates; and there are six villains, and 3 bordars, with 2 carucates. There is a Church; and 6 acres of meadow. The wood yields seven swine, for pannage and herbage. In the time of King Edward, it was valued at 6 pounds, as at present; but when received, at 3 pounds."

Robert de Gatton [this Hamo's grandfather] was possessed of the manors of Bocton and Wormesell, whose grandson Hamo de Gatton [this Hamo] dying without issue male, Elizabeth, his daughter and coheir, carried both these manors, with their appurtenances, in marriage to William de Dene, who in the 10th year of Edward II [1316/7] obtained a charter of free-warren for his several manors in this county. Margery, the other daughter of Hamo de Gatton, married Simon de Norwood, and had all her father's lands in Surry. William de Dene died in the 15th year of Edward III. holding these manors with their appurtenances, of the king in capite, as of his castle of Dover, and paying to the ward of it. Thomas de Dene, his son and heir, succeeded him in both of them, and in the 20th year of Edward III. paid aid for them, at the making the black prince a knight, as one knight's fee in Bocton and Wormsell, which Hamo de Gatton before held of the king.

4317	The manor of Nether, alias Lower Hardres, one part of which came to be stiled Diggs-court. Another part of the manor, anno 20 king Edward III. held by John de Cobham, was afterwards called The Manor of North Court, alias Lower Hardres, for which he had obtained a charter of free-warren in the 17th year of that reign, and it continued in his descendants, Lords Cobham, till by the female heirs it passed successively till it came by marriage to Sir T. Brooke, of Somersetshire, whose descendant John Brooke, of St. James's Dover (being a younger branch of that family ) died possessed of it anno 21 Henry VIIII. and his son John Brooke, of Denton, sold it, anno 3 Edward VI. to Thomas Spylman, Esq. of Canterbury, whose son Anthony, gent, of Petham,m anno 3 Elizabeth passed it away to Thomas and Humphry Hales, Esqs.. The remaining part of this manor, which was held anno 20 Edward III. by John de Swansham, being only the fourth part of it, to which no part of the manorial rights seem to have been allotted, came afterwards into the family of Diggs, likewise from which it passed before the end of king Henry VIIIs [1546/7] reign into the name of Rigden, in whose descendants it continued down to William Rigden, in whose time it had acquired the name of Youngs Farm and he, in 1697 [150 year ownership of this part of the manor] , alienated it to Edm. Calamy, clerk, whose grandson Edm. Calamy, in 1717, sold it to Thomas Willys, which it passed in the same manner, and in the like interests and shares as the manor of Dargate, in Hernehill. The Rigdens bear an ancient Kentish. surname. Robert Rigden owned the manor of Morton, Canterbury, for a short time in the reign of Henry VI. [1422/3-1460/1]; and during the 16th and 17th centuries the Rigdens owned part of the manor of North Court or Lower Hardres (H.).

It was originally called Dodingdale, from a family who were possessors of it, one of which name, Hamo, the son of Guido de Dodingdale, as appears by the records of St. Augustine's monastery, gave the tithes of his manor of Dodingdale to that abbot and convent; (fn. 8) but it seems it was but for a certain term of years, for in king Henry II.'s reign, according to the same records, Richard de Marci, who was then the possessor of this manor, granted the tithes of his lands of Dodingdale, to the hospital of St. Laurence, near Canterbury, in perpetual alms, to the intent, that the brothers and sisters of it should have these tithes in particular, to buy linen cloth on the feast of St. John Baptist; trusting that they would remember him and his in their prayers. ¶When the family of Dodingdale was become extinct here, this manor came into the possession of another family of the name of Morton. By a deed without date, Elias de Morton, who implanted his name on it, by which it has ever since been called, demised the see simple of it to Hugh Fitzvinon, a family which had large possessions at Sellinge, near Monk's-Horton; and his daughter Eugenia Fitzvinon passed it away by deed in the 20th year of king Henry III. to Nicholas de Twitham, and he immediately afterwards, by a deed not having any date, settled it on Robert de Polre, but whether his successor sold it or not to John Chich, is uncertain, as there is a chasm of this time in the private evidences of it, (fn. 9) though the records of St. Augustine make him to have some interest in this manor in the 3d year of king Edward III. anno 1330. The next that I find to have had possession of it, are Hardres and Isaac, who by joint conveyance in the 22d year of king Henry VI. conveyed it to William Say, for the use of Robert Rigden, in whom the title did not remain long, for he in the 33d year of that reign conveyed all his concern in it by sale to William Barton and John White, and they by joint consent alienated it in the reign of king Henry VI. to Richard Pargate, citizen of Canterbury, who died in the 35th year of that reign, and by his will (fn. 10) gave it, after his wife Isabel's death, to his son Edward, who was succeeded in it by his son and heir John Pargate, whose descendant Edward, in the 25th year of king Henry VIII.'s reign passed it away to Peter Bruin; and after it had remained many years united to this family, Henry Bruin dying without issue, gave it to his sister Jane Bugge, who in the 1st year of king James I.'s reign sold it to her kinsman John Bruin; and he in the 5th year of it alienated it to William Denne, who dying without issue male, Margaret his only daughter and heir carried it in marriage to Mr. Edward Hougham, after whose death it devolved to his two surviving daughters, Elizabeth, married to Mr. Edward Rose, of Chistlet, and Anne to Mr. John Bettenham, of Canterbury, who jointly possessed it in 1656, (fn. 11) at which time and perhaps for some time before, it was known by the name of Morton only. It afterwards became the property of Sawkins, from one of which name it was passed away to Mr. Wm. Hammond, of Stone-house, near Canterbury, who on his son's marriage settled it on him, and dying possessed of it in 1773, was succeeded by his son Mr. Henry Hammond, who died here on July 20, 1784, and his son Mr. William Hammond, now of Stonehouse, is the present possessor of it.	RIGDEN, Mr. (I14157)
4318	THE MANOR OF PETHAM was given in the year 1036, to Christ-church, in Canterbury, by Haldene, a Saxon prince, in the presence of king Cnute, and at the time of taking the survey of Domesday, in 1080, was part of the possessions of that see; accordingly it is thus entered in it, under the general title of the archbishop's lands: In Piteham hundred, the archbishop himself holds Piteham. It was taxed for seven sulings. The arable land is as much as twenty carucates. In demesne there are three carucates, and thirty-two villeins, with twenty one borderers having nineteen carucates. There are two churches. There are two servants, and thirteen acres of meadow. Wood for the pannage of twenty bogs. In the whole value in the time of king Edward the Confessor this manor was worth seventeen pounds and six shillings and three pence, and afterwards as much, and now it is worth twenty pounds. Of this manor Godefrid and Nigell hold of the archbishop one suling and an half and a yoke, and there they have four carucates, and four villeins, with eight borderers having three carucates. In the whole they were worth nine pounds, of these the monks have eight shillings per annum. After which this manor continued parcel of the possessions of the see of Canterbury till some time after the reformation, when it passed by act of parliament into the hands of the crown, where it staid till it was granted in the 5th year of king Charles I. to William White and others, (fn. 2) and they soon afterwards sold it to Henry Thomson, esq. who resided at THE MANOR OF KENFIELD, in his mansion then called Upper Kenfield, in this parish, being descended of a family originally of Sandwich, who bore for their arms, Gules, two bars, argent, a chief, ermine; and in his descendants they both continued down to Thomas Thomson, esq. of Kenfield, who died in 1762, leaving four sons and three daughters; of the former, Thomas the eldest, married Sarah, daughter of Mr. Samuel Belcher, and was of Ulcomb, and afterwards of Maidstone; Thomas, the second son, will be mentioned hereafter, who married Anne, widow of the Rev. Edward Wilson, of Romney, by whom he has no issue; John, the third son, was of Chartham deanry, and married Elizabeth, daughter of Mr. John Thurston, of Sittingborne; and Edward, the fourth, is of Romney Marsh. Of the daughters, Charlotte, the second, married Mr. William Belcher, of Ulcombe. By his will he gave these manors, with the mansion of Kenfield, to his second son, the Rev. Henry Thomson, now of Kenfield, the present possessor of them; (fn. 3) but he entailed them, on failure of male issue by his three younger sons, on the branch of this family of Somersham, in Huntingdonshire. A court leet and court baron is held for it. Charities. EDWARD STRONG gave by will, in 1623, the sum of 1l. 10s. per annum, payable out of a small farm in this parish, to be distributed among the poor annually. Which sum is vested in trustees. THOMAS THOMSON, ESQ. of Petham, by his will in 1626, gave 5l. 10s. for the relief of the poor of it. This money is now vested in the Rev. Henry Thomson, of Kenfield, the interest of of which, amounting to 5s. 6d. in money, is given to the poor yearly.

4319	THE MANORS OF WILMINGTON AND SOMERFIELD, formerly called Somerville, in Sellindge, Kent, were antiently the property of a family of the name of Wilmington, who resided at the mansion of Somerville-court, one of whom, Stephen de Wilmington, held them in the reign of Edward I. by knight's service, of the castle of Dover, being part of those which made up the barony, called the Constabularie, there. Roger de Wilmington died possessed of them anno Io Edward III. leaving four daughters his coheirs, who married Orderne, Brockhull, Browning, and St. Laurence, and they shared these manors, then called the manor of Great Wilmington, (to distinguish it from another, called Little Wilmington, in Limne, which has always had the same owners) and Somerville between them. After which, on a partition made of their estates, these manors and this seat were allotted to St. Laurence.

Subordinate to the manor of Chistlet are the MANORS OF HERSING AND HOPLAND, the former being now usually called Haseden, they were both antiently held of the abbot of St. Augustine, by knight's service, by Hugh de Soldank, who was succeeded in them by a family who assumed their name from their residence at the latter; one of whom, Nicholas de Hopelonde, was a benefactor to the above abbey in king Henry III.'s reign, for it appears that there was much land then called by the name of Hopland, which extended likewise into this parish; for it appears by the register of the above abbey, that Sir Haward de Bechele was the abbot's tenant for a manor at Hoplonde, in this parish, in the beginning of the above reign, and he had then the abbot's licence to have divine service performed in his chapel, within the bounds of it, by his own chaplain, in his and his wife's presence, so that it should be without prejudice to their church of Westbere, of which he was a parishioner. The Hoplande's were succeeded here, before the end of king Edward I.'s reign, by the family of St. Laurence, who became about that time owners of other lands in this parish, by purchase from Hugh de Westbere. After which both these manors continued in this name till about the latter end of king Henry V.'s reign, when Catherine, only daughter and heir of Thomas de St. Laurence, carried these manors in marriage to Sir William de Apulderfield, a man of much note in the succeeding reigns of king Henry VI. and king Edward IV. After which they became the property of the family of Isaak, who held them of the abbot by knight's service. [Source: Hasted, Edward. "Parishes: Westbere."

Sir Robert Cheney, sold it before the 27th year of the reign of Edward III, to William de Apulderfield, who made it his chief residence, and kept his shrievalty here in the year above-mentioned, and in several years afterwards. He was descended from Henry de Apulderfeld, of Apulderfeld, in Cowdham, (fn. 1) who, with his son Henry, were, with other Kentish gentlemen, with Richard I. at the siege of Acon, in Palestine, where, on account of their bravery, they had granted to them an augmentation to their arms, which they and their descendants continued afterwards to bear, viz. Sable, a cross, or, voided of the field, their original arms being, Ermine, a fess vaire, or, and gules. His great-grandson Sir William de Apulderfield was a man of much note in the reigns of Henry VI. and Edward IV. He left an only daughter Elizabeth, who became his heir to this manor, among the rest of his estates, which she carried in marriage to Sir John Fineux, chief justice of the king's bench in the reigns of king Henry VII. and VIII. He died in the 17th year of the latter reign, anno 1525, (fn. 2) leaving two daughters his coheirs, Jane, married to John Roper, esq. of Eltham, and Mildred, to James Diggs, esq. of Barham. The origin of the family of Roper has been very fully treated of in the first volume of this history, p. 472, under the description of Eltham, where the eldest branch of it remained till within memory, and the descent of it is there brought down to the abovementioned John Roper, esq. On the division of their inheritance, this manor, among others, was allotted to John Roper, in right of his wife. He was prothonotary of the king's bench, and attorney-general to Henry VIII. and died in 1524, at his manor of Welhall, in Eltham, to which he had removed from St. Dunstan's, the antient seat of the family. He left two sons, William Roper, esq. clerk of the king's bench, who succeeded him at Eltham, and Christopher, ancestor of the lords Teynham, and six daughters. Christopher Roper, esq. the second son, succeeded his father in the manor of Badmangore, and its appendages, at the manor-house of which he resided; it stood on the east side of the park, but on the family's removing their residence from it, it was suffered to decay and run to ruin. By Elizabeth his wife, daughter and coheir of Christopher Blore, esq. of Rainham, he had several children, of whom John Roper, esq. the eldest son, succeeded him in this manor. He was Knighted in 1616, anno 14 James I. and on the same day created lord Teynham, baron of Teynham in this county, as a reward for his forward attachment to the king's interest, having been the first man of note who proclaimed the king in this county. He built the present seat of Linsted lodge, and inclosed a park round it, and afterwards made it his residence. He died in 1618, and was buried in the vault which he had made in the south chancel of this church. ¶His descendants, lords Teynham, continued to reside at Linsted lodge, all of whom lie buried in this church, down to Christopher, lord Teynham, the fifth in succession, who in 1687 was constituted lord-lieutenant and custos rotulorum of this county. He died at Brussels next year, having married Elizabeth, daughter of Francis Brown, viscount Montague, by whom he had several sons and daughters, of the former, John, Christopher and Henry, became all three successively lords Teynham, the latter succeeding to the title and estate on the deaths of his two elder brothers unmarried, and became the eighth lord Teynham. He died in 1716, leaving by his first wife two sons, Philip and Henry, successively lords Teynham, and by his third wife the lady Anne, second daughter and coheir of Thomas Lennard, earl of Suffex, and widow of Richard Barret Lennard, lord Dacre, remarried thirdly to the hon. Robert Moore, he likewise left issue, whose descendant became afterwards, in her right, intitled to the fee barony of Dacre. He was succeeded by his eldest son Philip, lord Teynham, who died unmarried in 1727, upon which the title and estate devolved to his next and only whole brother Henry, lord Teynham, who left by his first wife Catherine, daughter and coheir of Edward Powell, esq. of Sandford, in Oxfordshire, five sons and two daughters, of whom Henry the eldest son, on his death in 1781, succeeded him as lord Teynham, and married first Mary-Wilhelmina, eldest daughter of Sir Francis Head, bart. (whose second daughter and coheir married John his next brother) who died s.p. and secondly Betsy, widow of John Mills, esq. of the island of St. Christopher, and daughter of Mr. Webber, of Somersetshire, by whom he had two sons Henry and John, and two daughters. He died in 1786, and was succeeded by his eldest son Henry, being the present right hon. lord Teynham, and the twelfth lord, in succession from the first grant of the title. He has never resided at the Lodge, which has been for some years occupied by different tenants, and the greatest part of the park converted into farms of arable land. He is at present unmarried, and still continues the proprietor of these estates, with Colyers and Newnham farm, and others in this parish. He bears for his arms, Party per fess, azure, and or, a pale and three roebucks heads erased, counterchanged; for his crest, On a wreath, a lion rampant, sable, holding a ducal coronet between his paws, or; and for his supporters, on the dexter side, a buck, or; on the finister, a tiger reguardant, argent. And he has likewise a right to quarter with those of Roper, the several coats of Apledore, St. Laurence, Tattersal, Apulderfield, the same for service, Twite, Parke, and Hugdon, as appeared by a pedigree in the possession of Edward Roper, esq. of Welhall, in Eltham, attested and collected by John Philipott, Somerset herald in 1629.

These estates seem afterwards to have come into the possession of a branch of the family of Apulderfield, commonly called Apperfield, one of whom, William de Apulderfield, died in the 33d year of Edward III. possessed of the manor of Buckland, held of the king as of his castle of Leeds, as of the honor of Crevequer, by knight's service. His son of the same name died in the 47th year of that reign, holding it as above-mentioned for the term of his life, the reversion of it being vested in Sybill, who was wife of Richard de Frognale, and it was found likewise that John de Frognale was her son and heir, and he died in the 49th year of it, possessed of this manor, with the advowson of the church of Bokeland, held in manner as above-mentioned, in whose descendants it continued down to Thomas Frogenhall, esq. who died possessed of this manor in 1505, holding it in capiteby knight's service, and by his will, proved that year, ordered his body to be buried in this church, and devised this manor, with its appurtenances, and other lands lying in Linsted, Tong, Tenham, and Stone, to Joane his wife for her life, and afterwards to be disposed of by his executors in deeds of charity.

His grandchild, of the same name, died anno 18 Edward I. possessed of this manor, with those of Dene, Childerston, and Chekeshille, whose son Henry Hussee received summons to parliament, among the barons of this realm, in the 15th year of the next reign of king Edward II. but this family was become extinct here before the latter end of Henry IV.'s reign, when this manor was in the possession of the eminent family of Apulderfield, but Sir William de Apulderfield, a man of much note in the reigns of king Henry VI. and king Edward IV [1420s through 1480s more or less]. leaving an only daughter and heir Elizabeth, she carried it in marriage to Sir John Fineux, chief justice of the king's bench, by whose eldest daughter and coheir Jane, it went in marriage to J.Roper, esq. of Wellhall, Eltham, prothonotary of the king's bench, and attorney-general to king Henry VIII.

The church of Lenham is dedicated to St. Mary. It is a large handsome building, with a square tower at the west end, in which is a good clock, which strikes the hours and quarters, and a set of chimes. It consists of two isles, and two chancels; on the north side of the high chancel, in the hollow in the wall, there is a figure in long robes, lying at full length, which seems very ancient, probably that of Thomas de Apulderfield, who lived in king Edward the III's reign, and was buried in this church. Henry de Apulderfield of Apulderfield in Cudham, now contractedly called Apurfield, served the latter part of the twenty sixth year, but was Sheriff alone in the twenty seventh year of Edward the first. William Apulderfield of Bedmancore in Lingsteed [sic] was Sheriff of Kent part of the twenty seventh and entirely the twenty eighth year, and thirty first year of Edward the third, and afterwards executed that office in the thirty-fourth, thirty-fifth, thirty-sixth, thirty-eigth, and forty-fourth of Edward the third. Henry de Apulderfield of Otterpley in Challock was Sheriff of Kent the fifty first year of Edward the third, in which year that victorious Prince died. Challock in the Hundred of Calehill hath two places in it, which may deservedly come within the Register of those Manors which are in this Survey to be recorded: The first is Otterpley, which was an eminent Seat belonging to the ancient Family of Apulderfield. The first that I find of Note in any public record to have possessed it, was Henry de Apulderfield, who had the Grant of a Market and Fair to his Manor of Apulderfield in Coldham, in the thirty-eighth year of Henry the third. OTTERPLEY is a manor in the parish of Challock, the mansion of which has been for many years pulled down, and the site and demesnes of it, which lay near Eastwell, included in the upper park there, which was formerly from it called Aperfields garden. This was one of the seats, of which there were several in this county, belonging to the ancient family of Appulderfield, called by contraction, Apperfield, whose original arms, "Ermine, a fess vaire, or, and gules", as well as their augmentation, granted by king Richard I. to Henry de Apulderfield, "Sable, a cross, or, voided of the field", are in several places on the roof of Canterbury cloisters, and in the windows of several churches in that city. Henry de Apulderfield, who resided at Apulderfield, in Cowdham, was possessed of it in the reign of Henry III. His descendant Henry de Apulderfield held his shrievalty at Otterpley in Challock, in the 50th year of king Edward III. being the last of that prince's reign. From him it passed to Richard, lord Poynings, who died possessed of it in the 11th year of king Richard II. His grandson Richard left a sole daughter and heir Eleanor, who married Sir Henry Percy, afterwards earl of Northumberland, and he in her right became afterwards possessed of this manor. How long it continued in his descendants I have not found; but in the reign of king Henry VII. it was become the property of Moyle, whose descendant Sir Thomas Moyle, of Eastwell, chancellor of the court of augmentation, dying in 1560, without male issue, Catherine his daughter and coheir carried it in marriage to Sir Thomas Finch, of Eastwell, whose son Sir Moyle Finch, of Eastwell, having in 1589 obtained licence to inclose his grounds in Eastwell and the adjoining parishes, for a park, this manor and the site of the ancient mansion of Otterpley, were included by him within the pale of it, in that part of it called the upper park, near Eastwell, and the mansion of it, pulled down. Since which it has continued in the same succession of ownership with that park and manor, down to George Finch Hatton, esq. now of Eastwell, the present proprietor of it. EASTURE in the parish of Chilham, was the Seat of a family which was also known by that surname, and in several ancient Deeds, which are not bounded or limited with any date, there is mention of John de Easture, who lived here in the Reign of Henry the third and Edward the first; after this name was vanished, the Apulderfields of Otterpley in Challock, a younger Branch of the Apulderfields of Bedmancore, were invested in the Possession; and of this family was Henry de Apulderfield, who was Sheriff of Kent in the fifty-first year of Edward the third, and likewise proprietary of this place. But, when this family resolved into a daughter and heir called Isabell, she by matching with John Idelegh, who had a large Income about Mepham, Chalk, and Cobham, cast it into the Inheritance of that family, where it had not long remained. A vicissitude like the former carryed it by Agnes the female heir of William Idelegh, to Christopher Ellenden, who was Master of a good estate about Seasalter and Damian Bleane, which Name not many years after shrunk into a daughter and heir likewise called Mary, descended from Thomas Ellenden, who was about the Reign of Henry the seventh matched to Edward Thwaits, so that in her right that family became settled in the Inheritance of this place, and remained in the possession, till in that age we stile our grandfathers, it was by sale translated into Morton, descended from the ancient family of the Mortons of Millbourn St. Andrews in the County of Dorset. The Manor of Apulderfield by contraction now called Apurfield lies in the precincts of this Parish [Cudham], which was long time possessed by Gentlemen that took their surname from thence, and branched numerously into divers parts of this Shire. Henry de Apulderfield in the thirty-eighth of Henry the third, obtained a grant of a Fair and Market to his Manor of Apulderfield. In the eleventh year of Edward the second, John de Insula had a Charter of Free-warren granted to his Manor of Apulderfield, which was renewed to Stephen de Ashway in the thirty-eighth of Edward the third. Hern[e] in the Hundred of Blengate, has nothing memorable in it but Haw-house, a Limb or portion of that wide Demeasne that the eminent family of Apulderfield held in this track; and when this name that had been deeply rooted in antiquity, and had spread to a large extent, in the latitude of it, was circumscribed in a daughter and heir called Elizabeth matched with Sir John Phineux, this seat was made by female interest, an addition to the income of this family, and here it remained undivided from it, till this name determined in John Phineux Esq. issued from a younger line of this family, who left only one daughter and heir, married to Sir John Smith, Grandfather to Philip Viscount Strangford, who in relation to that right this match has invested in him, is now the instant proprietary. Lingsted lies in the Hundred of Tenham, and hath two places in it, of eminent Reputation. The first is Bedmancore, which was in Times of a very high Ascent, wrapped up in the Patrimony of Cheyney, of whom I shall speak more at Patricksbourn Cheyney their principal Seat; the last of which Family that held it was William de Cheyney, who dyed possest of it, in the eighth year of Edward the third, as appears Rot. Esc. Num. 58. But after his Decease it was not long resident in this Name; for in the twenty seventh year of the abovesaid Prince, I find it in the Tenure of William de Apulderfield, of whose Family take this compendious prospect. He was descended from * Henry de Apulderfield, of Apulderfield in Coudham, who with his Son Henry, are inserted in the Catalogue of those eminent Kentish Gentlemen who were engaged with Richard the first, at the Siege of Acon in Palestine. * Henry de Apulderfield another of this Family accompanied Henry the third, in his Expedition into Gascony, and his Son * Henry de Apulderfield, with John de Lovetot, did by a Commission dated the fifteenth of November, in the sixteenth year of Edward the first, sit as Justices of the Sewers for Romney Mersh. And this Henry was Sheriff of Kent the twenty sixth, and twenty seventh of the abovesaid Prince, and had Issue William de Apulderfield the abovementioned Lord of Bedmancore, who was Sheriff of Kent, in the twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth of Edward the third, and again the thirty first, thirty fourth, thirty fifth, thirty sixth, thirty-eighth, and forty-fourth years of the above mentioned Prince, and held his Shrievaltie at Lingsted. Henry Apulderfield his Son, was Sheriff of Kent the fifty first of Edward the third, in which that glorious Prince paid that Tribute to Nature we all owe; and from this Man, did Bedmancore descend to his great Grandchild Sir William Apulderfield, a Man of very great Eminence in the Raign of Henry the sixth, and Edward the fourth, who concluded in a Daughter and Heir called Elizabeth, matched to Sir John Phineux, Lord Chief Justice of the Kings Bench in the Raign of Henry the seventh, as is attested by his Monument in Hern Church, and he in her right became possest of Bedmancore: but it was not long fastned to this Name, for this Man likewise concluded in two Female Coheirs, whereof Jane Phineux one of them, matched witn John Roper, Esquire; and Middred the other, wedded James Diggs of Diggs-court in Berham Esquire: from the first Alliance, Christopher now Lord Roper of Tenham, is lineally extracted, and, by Right of that Conjugal Union, is fortified in his present Possession and Title to this place. There was a Chantry founded at Rye-house in the parish of Otford by Henry de Apulderfield, in the forty- sixth year of Edward the third, as appears Pat. Anno. 46. Edwardi tertii, Parte secunda Memb. 19. NEWBURGH is partly situated in Rodmersham, and partly in Lingsted, and anciently had the Estimate of a Manor, and gave name to a family that was represented to the World, under that notion, as appears, by very old Deeds without date, in the hands of Mr. Bartholomew May, too tedious here to recite. In the twenty-fourth year of Edward the first, Isabell, wife of Henry de Apulderfield, held it at her death, and in the copy of the Inquisition Roll, it is called Manerium de Newburgh: but in ages of a more modern complexion, it fell from its former reputation, and by disuse shrunk into neglect and contempt, and is now only eminent, in that it was involved in that estate, that by Elizabeth coheir of Sir William Apulderfield devolved to Sir John Phineux, who finding his Sepulcher in female coheirs, Jane one of them, brought it over to her husband John Roper, Esquire, and from him by paternal efflux, is the title now wafted along, to the right honorable Christopher Roper, Baron of Tenham, removed by no wide Distance from this place. The Manor it self, was enwraped in the Patrimony of the noble and ancient family of Apulderfield. William de Apulderfield, obtained a Charter of Free-warren to his Lands at Horsted in Rochester, in the thirty-eighth year of Henry the eighth. Thomas de St. Lawrence held Swalecliffe, in the Hundred of Blengate, as appears by the Book of Aid, kept in the Exchequer, in the twentieth year of Edward the third, at making the Black Prince Knight, and dyed possest of it, in the twenty second year of that Prince, Rot. Esc. Num. 9. And from him did it descend to his Grandchild Thomas St. Lawrence, who setled it in Marriage with Katharine his Daughter and Heir, matched to Sir William Apulderfield, who determining in Daughters and Coheirs, Elizabeth, one of them, espoused to Sir John Phineux, Lord Chief Justice of the Kings Bench, brought it to confesse the Signory of that Family: but, he deceasing without Issue-male, Jane his only Daughter and Sole Inheritrix, being matched to John Roper Esquire, this Mannor became by this Alliance, inoculated into his Patrimony, and was resident in this Name untill the Beginning of King James; and then it was conveyed to Mr. Benedict Barnham. Selling in the Hundred of Street, hath several places in it which cannot be declined without some memorial: Willmington and Somervill, are the first that occurre, and they gave Seat, and one of them Sirname, to a Family of Repute in that Age, because I find they had Land in other places in the County. Roger de Wilmington, held the Possession of them at his Death, which was in the eleventh year of Edward the third, and left his Estate here and elsewhere, to be shared between his four Daughters and Coheirs, matched to Ordmere, Bromming, Brockhull and St. Laurence; but upon the Division of the Estate, these accrued to St. Laurence, and in Right of paternal Devolution, John St. Laurence, Son of Thomas St. Laurence, held these at his Decease, which was in the tenth year of Richard the second, and from him their right devolved to his Son Thomas St. Laurence, whose Sole Daughter and Heir Katharine, brought them to be the Inheritance of Sir William Apulderfield; who about the latter end of Henry the sixth, passed them away to Ashburnham and Till. Stourmouth in the Hundred of Blengate, was a piece of that large Revenue, which owned the Signory of Hussey. In the fifty fifth year of Henry the third, Henry le Hussey obtained a Charter of Free-Warren, to his Manor of Stourmouth, and his Grandchild Henry le Hussey died possest of it in the sixth year of Edward the third, but, alass, neither the Nobleness of the Name, nor wideness of the Franchise, could keep this Family from departing from this place; for about the latter end of Henry the fourth, I find it in the Tenure of the eminent Family of Apulderfield; but setled not long here; for Sir William Apulderfield about the middle of Edward the fourth concluded Sir Jo. Phineux Lord Chief Justice of the Kings Bench, in the Reign of Henry the seventh made it his Demeasn: but the Title of this place did not long fix here; for, he dying without Issue Male, Jane his only Daughter, became his only Heir, who by espousing of Jo. Roper Esq; of St. Dunstans in Canterbury, linked it to the Demeasn of this Family; from whom in a continued Current of descent the Proprietie of it is now flowed down to William Roper, a Cadet or younger Branch of this Stem. Sturrey in the Hundred of Blengate, was a Manor by a Prescription of many Generations wrapt up in the Patrimony of Apulderfeild, a Family whom we shall have occasion often to mention thoroughout the Body of this Survey, and here it continued till this Name met with its Tomb in a Daughter and Heir, known by the Name of Elizabeth, who was wedded to Sir John Phineux: and although he likewise concluded in a Female Heir, matched to John Roper Esquire, who drew along with her a great portion of the Estate, yet this still remained fixt in this Name and Family, even till our Fathers Memory; and then John Phineux Esquire died, and left this, and other vast possessions to his Daughter and Sole Heir Elizabeth Phineux, who brought them over to her Husband Sir John Smith, eldest Son of Sir Thomas Smith, and Grand-father to Philip Smith Viscount Strangford, who by Right planted in him by so worthy a Predecessor, does entitle himself to the Interess and possession of it. LORRINGDEN AND DEAN are two manors in the parish of Challock, the former of which is written in ancient deeds, Lourding, alias Lurdingden, and was formerly possessed by a family of that name, the place on which it stands being yet called Loringdens forstal; and Philipott says, that there was a tradition very frequent among the country people in these parts, that Loringden was once the mansion of gentlemen of this name, one of whom had a combat with one of the Apulderfields, of Otterpley, about the building of a chapel in the valley, which was pretended by Loringden to have been erected on his land.

4333	THE PARISH of Kennington is situated in a healthy country, being for the most part a gravelly, though not an unfertile soil, not much more than a mile from Ashford, close to the west side of the high road from Canterbury, which is joined by that from Faversham, which runs along the opposite side of the parish, and joins the former a little beyond Burton. It is watered by two small streams which rise northward of it, the one at Sandyhurst, the other near Eastwell park; the former running by Bybrooke, where it is called Bacon's water, and the other at the opposite part of the parish, by Clipmill and Frogbrook, near Wilsborough lees, into the river Stour, which flows along the eastern side of the parish. The village is situated on rising ground, at a small distance from the Canterbury road, with the church at the further end of it, close to the edge of the lees, or heath, called Kennington lees. The places of note in this parish, are situated near the last-mentioned road; besides which, there is near Kennington-house, a small neat box, built by the late Geo. Carter, esq. of this parish, and given by him to his daughter Mary, who married the Rev. John Clotworthy Skeffington. She died s. p. and her two sisters, Mary and Anne Carter, now possess it; and at the further part of the parish, beyond Clipmill, on the same road, is a large built by Mr. Carter above-mentioned, for his own residence, on an estate which he bought for this purpose of the family of Brett, who had resided here for some generations. He was the second son of George Carter, of Smarden, son of James, of Wilsborough, a younger son of George Carter, gent. of Crundal, whose family has already been mentioned before under that place. He died here in 1782, and his only son the Rev. George Carter is the present possessor of this seat, and resides in it. Citation 'Parishes: Kennington', Hasted, Edward.

4338	The testator married Margaret Willington, one of the seven daughters and coheirs of William Willington of Barcheston (near Shipton-on-Stour), Warwickshire. Margaret’s sister, Mary Willington, married William Sheldon (d. 24 December 1570) of Beoley, one of whose granddaughters married Oxford’s brother-in-law, Francis Trentham, and another of whose granddaughters married the brother of Thomas Russell, overseer of the will of William Shakespeare of Stratford. For the will of William Willington, proved 14 November 1559, see TNA PROB 11/42B/642. By Margaret Willington, according to the will below, the testator had three sons and two daughters: * Lodowick Greville (d.1589), eldest son and heir. He married Thomasine Petre, daughter of Sir William Petre (1505/6–1572) of Ingatestone Hall, Essex, by his second wife, Anne (nee Browne) Tyrrell Petre, at St Botolph’s, Aldersgate, on 10 February 1560. For Sir William Petre, see the ODNB entry. For Anne (nee Browne) Tyrrell Petre, see her will, TNA PROB 11/64/163. Lodowick Greville and Thomasine Petre resided at Ingatestone Hall after the marriage, and eight of their children were baptized there from 1563 to 1577: William Greville (1563), Sir Edward Greville (January 1565), Anne (1566), John Greville (1567), Margaret Greville (1569), Charles Greville (1572), Peter Greville (1574) and Valentine Greville (1577). See Whitfield, supra, p. 82. Lady Katherine Grey stood godmother to Lodowick’s second son, Sir Edward Greville (1565-c.1628), who, according to an unsubstantiated story became Lodowick’s heir when he shot an arrow into the air and accidentally killed his elder brother, William Greville. See Whitfield, supra, pp. 82-3. The testator’s eldest son and heir, Lodowick Greville, was pressed to death on 14 November 1589 as an accomplice to two murders. See Emmison, F.G., Tudor Secretary; Sir William Petre at Court and Home, (London: Longmans, 1961), p. 287; and Greer, Germaine, Shakespeare’s Wife, (Toronto: McClelland & Stewart, 2008), at: https://books.google.ca/books?id=WF6OsgytwzQC&pg=PT205 For the marriage of Lodowick Greville and Thomasine Petre, see also ERO D/DP F1 at: http://seax.essexcc.gov.uk/result_details.aspx?ThisRecordsOffSet=1&id=325216 Only two of the children of Lodowick Greville and Thomasine Petre married. In 1583 Sir Edward Greville (1565-c.1628) married Jane Bromley, the daughter of the Lord Chancellor, Thomas Bromley (c.1530-1587), by whom he had seven daughters and a son, John Greville, who died unmarried in his father’s lifetime. See Whitfield, supra, p. 83. Margaret Greville (b.1569) married Thomas Bushell, by whom she had a daughter, Elizabeth Bushell. Margaret’s Greville’s husband, Thomas Bushell, is the ‘Mr Bushell’ mentioned as a surety in Richard Quiney’s letter to William Shakespeare of Stratford, supra. With the death of their brother, Charles Greville, on 6 February 1634, the senior Greville male line came to an end.

4340	The widow Dolly was buried from Selling April 28, 1723 - found in Godmersham PR	DALLIE, William (I5232)
4341	The wife of Robert Austen, of Adisham, was not buried nor died on or about 25 Oct 1538. That Elizabeth is clearly defined in the Parish Register of Adisham as being a child. The death/burial of Robert Austen's wife is unknown but can be dated at sometime between 1514, the calculated date of the birth of her last child but before 23 Nov 1544, the date of Robert Austen's Will. Also, in every reliable source Robert Austen's wife's name is unknown. So, there is even no clear evidence that her name was Elizabeth. As Richard's first daughter is named Edith and his second daughter is named Elizabeth and as Agnes a'Denne's mother's name is also unknown, Richard's wife could be either Edith or Elizabeth. Only finding her mentioned as the wife of Robert Austen in her own father's Will will prove what her name was. Anyone who has connected her to a Dutch woman and then claims that woman to be a noblewoman is entirely wrong. Her father Peiter was not a nobleman, either. He was a castellan of the Loevestein castle in the what is now the Netherlands. Usually the duties of a castellan consisted of military responsibility for the castle's garrison, maintaining defences and protecting the castle's lands, combined with the legal administration of local lands and workers including the castle's domestic staff. If this was a true connection to Robert Austin KAS would have the details. A search of their website through the Google site search confirms the opposite through the absence of any such information. Additionally, the Adisham article researched and written by Edward Hasted fails to mention any of the Austen's by name even though they rented Court-Lodge on the manor. Had there been a noble connection Hasted would definitely have mentioned that connection. The article can be read on British History Online.	Elizabeth? (I11847)

4344	The youngest surviving son of Edward and Christian Milsted, William had the sea in his blood and a roving spirit to match. By the age of 18 he was actively employed as a mariner and, in fact, his existence was not discovered until he returned to Faversham in time to be caught on the 1891 census. William married circa 1868 Ellen Hannah of Faversham and through some means settled at Frindsbury. There his first three children were born. The family then moved on to Upnor where the next two children were born. By 1880 the family had moved once more. This time, to Strood where Ernest Henry was born. At the time of the 1881 census, however, the family had returned to Frindsbury. William was still enumerated as being a mariner but they lived at the grocer's shop. Living with them was a boarder, William Warrington, a blacksmith from Yalding. William's last child was born at Strood during 1883. The 1891 census saw the return of this roving family to Faversham. Living at 11 Park Road with the four youngest children, William was still engaged as a fisherman. William Ernest married, during the last three months of 1896, a lady by the name of Florence Homewood. They had at least six children comprised of 5 daughters and 1 son. Ernest Henry also married at Faversham, circa 1903 Ada Eliza. They had at least four sons.	GREGORY, William (I2249)

4346	There appears to be another Ada Blanch Gregory living with her brother Albert E. Gregory plus one other person in 1939 register. That individual cannot be the same one as this Ada Blanch Gregory as she died during June Qtr 1900 along with the two last born of her children. She was aged 22 years at the time of her death.	GREGORY, Ada Blanch (I6289)
4347	There are at least 3 deaths of an Ann Martin that occur between 1891 and 1901 that could potentially be this Ann. There are no deaths registered under Ann Marsden in that same time frame. So appears that, if this Ann did remarry in 1881 to Edward Henry Marsden, then something occurred before 1891 that sent her to life with her son as a widower and under previous married name of Martin. Much research in certificates or family knowledge is going to be required to untangle this thread.	MEDHURST????, Ann ?? (I13976)
4348	There are at least 3 James Martins who died within the 1871-1881 time period, 2 at Maidstone District and 1 at North Aylesford district. All of their respective ages are also within the realm of possibility for being the death of this particular James Martin. Perhaps a death certificate would help but perhaps not, either, particularly if the death occurred at a hospital and the wife or one of the children were not signing as an informant on the death.	MARTIN, James (I13975)
4349	There are two families in Wellington at this time headed by a John Ralph. One has a wife named Joan and the other has a wife named Mary. I have marked all with the mother's marked Mary in the notes. All others with mother's named Joan have no notes regarding mother's name on baptism. Mother not named in burial record of this child.	RALPH, Mary (I15862)
4350	There are two points of interest in the physical description of Zachariah as found in the Militia description book: I have to wonder at what point in time he had been afflicted with the small pox. Was our Sarah ever exposed to it or had the disease struck him after she had left home? There is an indication from the Boughton-under-Blean church registers that smallpox had hit the parish fairly hard during 1757 with a larger outbreak having occurred during 1759. It may well be that this was the time during which Zachariah contracted the disease. The second point is the blue spot over his eye brow. A current friend of mine also has a blue spot, but on his left forearm. That mark, I am told, was left behind after he had been jabbed most savagely with the point of a lead pencil. Upon healing, inasmuch as it was the underlying vein that had received the most severe injury no epidermal scar had been left by the attack, just the blue spot to mark the point of entry of the pencil. I can only think that perhaps Zachariah had encountered some very sharp pointed object and was quite probably very lucky that that object had not taken his eye out.	JAMES, Zachariah (I4528)
