My apologies, I missed this one the first time around.
Just as well I put a question mark at the side !

Baptism:
Parish St Dennis
Name: John KENT
Father: William KENT: Mother Grace
Date 5th Feb 1809

At least we know there are two John Kent's from St Dennis around that period

Hello,

My ggggrandfather was Charles COUCH a shoemaker born in Bristol, Somerset about 1797 according to the 1841 England Census. Listed with him is his wife Susanna b abt 1794 in Bristol, Eliza b abt 1825 (my gggrandmother), Edward b abt 1827, Daniel b abt 1829, Ann b abt 1831, and George b abt 1834. They were in Camden Town, Saint Pancras, Middlesex for the 1841 census.

I have found Charles and Susanna in the '41 and '51 census, Eliza through the '61 to '91 census. I have found some other bits and pieces as well. Does this fit into your research at all?

Hi Rosa

I am in Australia !
Mahala (b1816) m John Kent. their son was Peter (b 1850 London)

Peter arrived in Victoria c 1869, Can't find his entry either.
Many of his siblings went to Sth Africa, so he could have enter via there.

I am in touch with most of Peters descendants in Australia

Do you have all of Eliza & Mahalas siblings ? I have 8 kids of the marriage of John & Marjory


Peter is my Gt Grandfather

nothing before them unfortunatley.

I know that 'Couch' means red in the cornish language.
