Hi, I'm desperate to find details of my family pre 1881. I found it impossible to read 1837 for the birth I wanted and need to try and find my gr gr grandads parents. Laurie

Sarah If you've got 1871, I'd be very grateful if you could look at my query re: Sherwood further down the list under "1871 Kent census"

Howdy again Sarah, Could you kindly have a look on the vital records for Francis Giles Sherwood's birth, probably in the 1820's in Hythe or Lympne, and his father John's birth around 1800 and marriage probably Lymnpe around 1820. Many thanks.

Just a nudge, in case there is a glimmer of hope out there. Laurie
