Thread: Martin 'n' Ford

Hello all!!



I have finally found what happened to one of my Woodham women!!



Mary Ann Woodham, born 1792, married John Ford in 1832, Chislehurst, Kent (IGI) and had two children: Calvert Augustus & Frances Ann Harriet (who were mentioned in Mary's father's will which led us to them!) Now looking for info on this couple and their descendants.



I believe John & Mary are in Bromley in '41 - please verify (they would be about fifty years apiece).

Calvert A. (b. 1832, Sundridge) married Eliza E. King (b. 1830, Sevenoaks) in 1856 and Frances A. H. (b. 1834, Addington) married William Martin (b. 1825, Strood) in 1855



Thanks in advance
