Notes |
- John was privately baptised - the note ''privately baptised, publicly received March 13 1857" - added at adjacent margin in the register.
1871 census: John (14) was a pupil teacher at a school , Rocky Hill House, London Road, Maidstone, Kent.
1881 census: at Gray Court farm, Graveney, Kent, John (24, farmer of 247 acres employing 2 men and 2 boys), Jane (27) and Julia Mary (13 months). John's aunt Alice (50, unmarried, no profession) was staying with him.
1884: living at Graveney Court with freehold house and land.
Baptism and burial records at ancestry.com suggest that John and Jane had a son, Arthur in 1886. This must be the Arthur whose birth and death were registered in 1886.
1891 census: in Perry Wood, Selling, Kent, John (34, ag lab), Jane (37), Henry (8, scholar) and Margaret (6, scholar). Daughter Julia M (10) was a visitor with Frederick A WOOLATT and family at 21 Churchfield Road, Ealing, London.
Frederick Austin WOOLLATT was born about 1850 in Chelsea. He married Alice Elizabeth VERRINDER on 27 July 1882 at St John's Church, Chelsea (Chelsea 1a/546): she was the daughter of Charles Garland VERRINDER who married Sarah HOLLAND in Q4 1856 (Windsor 2c/892).
1901 census (indexed as MARITAS by ancestry.com): at 16 Cambridge Road, Faversham, John (44, foreman cement factory), Jane (47) and Henry (18, clerk zinc powder works).
1911 census: John's widow Jane (57, born Kingsdown, Kent) was a visitor at 39 Warwick Road, Ealing, London W (9 rooms), home of Henry Kelburne EDGE (who signed the form) and family. Also visiting was Irene Elizabeth CHATFIELD (26, single, hospital nurse, born Lewes, Sussex).
It seems highly probable that Irene was she who in 1926 married Leonard John Minter (born about 1869) of the Folkestone Minters. I haven't been able to establish whether the meeting in Ealing was purely coincidental or was based on some relationship between Jane and Irene. If the latter, I haven't been able to discover it. An investigation of Henry EDGE and his wife Julia hasn't shown anything: they were married on 1 May 1872 at All Saints, Kensington, Julia being Julia WOOLLATT who was born in Chelsea about 1852, daughter of Randal WOOLLATT from Duffield, Derbyshire and Julia nee BUCKLEY, who was born about 1825 in Harbledown near Canterbury, probably the daughter of George and Sarah BUCKLEY who lived at Prospect House, Harbledown in 1841. Randal and Julia married in the Bridge, Kent registration district in Q2 1846.
Irene CHATFIELD's ancestry also fails to establish a link between her and Jane Minter. Irene was the daughter of Thomas CHATFIELD and Elizabeth Smith nee BUSHBY. The BUSHBYs were from Lewes, Sussex where Irene was born.
