Ann

Wow!

Thank you so much for the research.

You have confirmed some what I knew and given me heaps to digest.

I am doing some searching in census records in 1841 & 1851 and have found the reference to Stephen and Mary's son Henry born @ 1820 Kent and still living there. Taking all the information you provided and my research I have made an executive decision re parentage - Stephen & Mary.

Regards,

Lynne (in Australia)

I've tried to discover why people were removed from or to a particular village - no luck yet

Hi all,

Thank you both for your help.

Susan Yes this is the right family.
Ann - Thank you for the Osbournes. I didn't have these.

1841 & 1851 census show correct Henry being researched. I need to check the 1861 census again as he died in 1868..

Stephen Goodsell in Kent (1861 census) is the son of Stephen & Mary.

I am still confused as to whom Henry's correct parents are.

Regards,

Lynne (in Australia)
