RE: Sholden Kent Near Deal Kent. 1810-91 Norris Marsh & Berwick Family
I'm wanting to know about my great-great-grandfather Thomas Nailey who married my great-great-grandmother Ann Claringbold, they lived there and had my great-grandmother Rebecca who was born on 27th March 1839, but she emigrated to New Zealand and died there. I want to know all about them, where they lived, how many in her family, did they live on an estate, as apparently my great-grandfather from Elham, John Southon, was a gardener on her father's estate and they fell in love and eloped to New Zealand. There was a agriculture strike round then and people were emigrating everywhere. I have no family tree on this side so am very interested in knowing my English ancestors and bloodline... I'm a Kiwi Maori with English blood in my veins...thank you if you have any info...
