Staff Chartham

A Memory of Chartham.

My grandparents Charles Butcher and Nellie Florence Baldock worked at the Asylum and my Great Grandfather was a waggoner there. He resided with his family at Asylum Cottages. I would be pleased to have any information relating to this period at the hospital and in what capacity Charles and Nellie were employed. They married in about 1915. I am trying to trace the birth place and parents of Charles Butcher but keep drawing a blank. Can anyone help?

My great, great grandfather was Henry Baldock; the wagonner who was your great grandfather. You may know this by now but at the time of the 1911 census Nellie Florence Baldock (24) was working as a nurse in the Asylum and her future husband Charles Albert Butcher (33) was an assistant in the Asylum. I think they married in 1912. It would be lovely to hear if you have any further information to share about the Baldock family in Chartham or Childham.

That's great to hear Graham. I probably don't know too much more about the Baldocks than you except that they seemed to have a long connection with the asylum and were quite prolific! I suppose we must be some sort of cousins!
