Record for Tenterden Kent

[Peter Stenning]

I wonder if anyone has the time to do a look up for me Please.?

I am trying to see what i can get on William Munday
Death registered on 1st QTR 1849
Tenterden , Kent
Volume 5 Page 373

I am hoping the informant is a Esther Munday wife?

This will prove i have the right William Munday

Many thanks

Peter

The best you are going to hope for at the Records Office is a lookup in the burial records, which wont give you the informant's name.

[Peter Stenning]

Thanks for that Elaine

Perhaps a marriage might be better , but here's where i get stuck as all i know is that my William Munday was married to Esther Hanser no idea of date but these are the parents of on the Birth cert of Daughter Emma in 1849 and he is not shown as deceased on the birth cert .?


Perhaps i should put this on the main board.

I'll move it across for you Peter.

[Elaine ..Spain]

Have you found the family in the 1851 census?

[Peter Stenning]

yes below




Name Age
Ether Munday 40
Esther Munday 14
Lucy Munday 12
Harriet Munday 9
Hannah Munday 6
Elizabeth Munday 4
Amy Munday 2

NOTE that Amy and Emma are the same person , born Emma she was known as Amy for most of her life.

[Elaine ..Spain]

Thanks for that - couldn't find them!

So the same family in 1841

Wm Monday 35
Ester Monday 30
William Monday 8
Sarah Monday 6
Ester Monday 4
Lucy Monday 2

- they all say born in Kent, but on the 1851 census Esther's place of birth is given as Rye Sussex.

I wonder if it might be worth looking at the Sussex OPC - they have done a lot of parish register transcriptions.

[Elaine ..Spain]

.... i know is that my William Munday was married to Esther Hanser

Are you sure it is Hanser - name not showing up in any Sussex records I look at. Could it be Hanson?

[Mary from Italy]

I think you're going to have to get the death cert, Peter - that's the only way to get the informant's name.

all these children on the 1841 were born in Rye suyssex, except for william who was born in Kent see IGI

Lucy was born in Rye:

Births Dec 1838
MUNDAY Lucy Rye 7 368

and according to the IGI (submitted entry?) was christened there in 1840.

The baptism isn't showing up on the Sussex OPC site under Rye, though. Can't find the coverage page, but they only seem to go up to about 1816. Can't see a baptism for Esther Hans* either.

[Peter Stenning]

Esther's second name has been a subject of debate on a previous thread with a copy of my cert
it could be Mansa,Mansen.Hansa,Hansen.
My reasoning is that the first letter M is the same shape as the M in Munday

[Elaine ..Spain]

There is a Hester Manser on the Sussex OPC

Baptism 2 Jan 1814 St. Mary, Broadwater.

That's more like it - I'd forgotten your previous thread:

Although Rye is now in E. Sussex - pre-boundary changes it was in Kent . could explain the kent and sussex conundrum

[marymog]

the baptisms are on this IGI site

According to http://woodchurchancestry.org.uk/midkentmarriages , William MONDAY married Hester MANSTER at Biddenden, Kent on 30-Dec-1831.

Cheers,
Richard

Looks like Hester got remarried after William died:

From the IGI, this seems to be Hester's baptism (submitted record though, so beware!). Northiam is only about 7 miles from Rye. Father's name Thomas matches that given at 1866 marriage above:

Hester Manser
Christening: 12 APR 1812 Northiam, Sussex, England
Father: Thomas Manser
Mother: Keturah Murcin
