Hi all,

I am trying to find the grave of GEORGE BROWNING abt 1848 - OCT/NOV/DEC 1891. His last known residence was 37 Maida Road, Luton, Chatham in the 1891 census. The parish on this census was St Mary's but this has been crossed out.

Any information or images would be greatly appreciated :-)

Many thanks

I am looking for any information on Mercer Pope who died in 1923~ his wife Julia Pope (nee Greenfield) who died in 1907 and their daughter Alice J. Pope who was born in 1891. Julia Pope would be my great grandmother. I can find information on Mercer and Julia~ but cannot follow through on more than the birth of Alice. They lived in and around the Malling area. Thanks for any information you have.

• Julia Pope (nee Greenfield) is my grandfather's sister. In my family Greenfield tree I've got details of Julia's 4 brothers and 2 sisters, her parents, grandparents and great grandparents going back to Pembury around 1750. Julia married Mercer in 1883 and I've have also found details of Mercer's father and grandfather going back to 1781 in Cranbrook. My email is shaun@shaungreenfield.co.uk

Sir John Stuard was a Captain at Leeds Castle.His father**Sir John Styward~ knight "Scotangle" had connections to Coventry England. The family ends up in Pateshull~ England****The Latinised adjective 'Roffensis' refers to Rochester****During 1450~ Coventry had become a favoured sanctuary for the Lancastrian King Henry VI and his wife~ Margaret of Anjou. The Royals fled here in June after an uprising by 50~000 men of Kent. In 1451~ King Henry VI granted Coventry along with its surrounding hamlets the elevated status of County~ and so~ from the 6th December **1451 there existed the "County of the City of Coventry" which would carry this status for nearly four centuries. **The settlements around the city forming the county were: Radford~ Keresley~ Foleshill~ Exhall~ Ansty~ Shilton~ Caludon~ Wyken~ Henly~ Wood-end~ Stoke~ Biggin~ Whitley~ Pinley~ Asthill~ Harnell~ Horwell & Whoberley~ plus parts of Walsgrave-on-Sowe and Styvechale.**The Royal family's problems of 1450~ things were to get worse. King Henry VI had become prone to periods of mental illness~ and in 1455 suffered a second bout~ lasting into 1456. It was perceived that the King's power~ and indeed his life~ might be in danger~ and so Queen Margaret~ now effectively in charge~ moved the Royal Court **to Coventry~ known by many as her "secret harbour".

Between 1700 & 1750 several of my CHILDREN ancestor from Headcorn and my SAXBY ancestors from Leeds were married in Langley. These were people from wealthy families and the that so many were married there that it leads me to believe that there must have been something special or significant about Langley at that time.****The Langley Parish Records show as many "outsiders" marrying there as local residents. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why?****Any help gratefully appreciated. **
