Sue indicates regarding a query about Susannah & Elizabeth SPEARPOINT (dau's of Henry/Sarah MATSON). "I think you will find that Susannah and her Sister, Elizabeth, were both 'born' 19 April 1799 and 'Baptised' 8 November 1801, Zion Chapel Fenchurch Street-Lady Huntingdon Form, Folkestone, KEN. Thus the two dates you have (See online IGI). Still has to be confirmed but from what you have said, you already have the birth information from the PR's."

Death Mar 1904 MAJOR Henry Spearpoint 79 Elham 2a 732
Information below about this individual and family kindly supplied by Neil Harvey (Email: nharvey.keytechuk@btinternet.com):
I have two more children: Henry Spearpoint b 1856 Folkestone FreeBMD B: Jun 1856 Major Henry Spearpoint * * * 1861 5 @ Radnor St. (Henry S) 1871 Mariner 15 @ East St. 1891 widower unemployed Fisherman 35 @ 31 Radnor St.
William b 1859 Births Jun 1859 MAJOR William Elham 2a 683 1861 2 @ Radnor St. Not with parents on 1871 census
I have also found a further Henry Spearpoint b1893 FreeBMD Births Mar 1893 Major Henry Spearpoint Elham 2a 1030
I therefore consider it likely that the Jane Elizabeth Hall marriage in 1880 (see below) was probably to the 1856 Henry Spearpoint and that the 1893 Henry Spearpoint is their son.
Marriage Mar 1880 Major Henry Spearpoint Elham 2a 1177 (To HALL Jane Elizabeth or Paterson Elizabeth) (If married Jane Hall, death could be her or more likely a child in Mar 1888 MAJOR Jane Elizabeth 30 Elham 2a 703)
General Notes: Child - John Warman MAJOR
Information below about this individual and family kindly supplied by Sue [Email: susanrob@beyond.net.au] who writes (2006):
"Henry's other brother is John Warman MAJOR. As you say, he shows up on the 1851 Census with wife Jane, but not confirmed that is the correct person. I managed to follow the family through from 1851-1891 Census and finally on the 1891 Census, he is listed as John W. MAJOR, Widow. So, I would say that he is definitely Henry's Brother. If you would like all the Census records, don't hesitate to ask."
In the 1851 UK Census there is a 24-year-old John, with wife Jane age 27 and daughter Jane age 4. No sign of the other family members.
John Warman Major - Marriages Mar 1850 Major John Warman Elham 5 184 (To MARSH Margaret, NEWMAN Elizabeth, SIMS Mary or WARMAN Sarah Jane). So if the census is correct and he married a Jane, that would be another Warman connection but no FreeBMD hit for death of a Jane or Sarah Jane Major.

General Notes: Husband - John Warman MAJOR
Information below about this individual and family kindly supplied by Sue [Email: susanrob@beyond.net.au] who writes (2006):
"Henry's other brother is John Warman MAJOR. As you say, he shows up on the 1851 Census with wife Jane, but not confirmed that is the correct person. I managed to follow the family through from 1851-1891 Census and finally on the 1891 Census, he is listed as John W. MAJOR, Widow. So, I would say that he is definitely Henry's Brother. If you would like all the Census records, don't hesitate to ask."
In the 1851 UK Census there is a 24-year-old John, with wife Jane age 27 and daughter Jane age 4. No sign of the other family members.
John Warman Major - Marriages Mar 1850 Major John Warman Elham 5 184 (To MARSH Margaret, NEWMAN Elizabeth, SIMS Mary or WARMAN Sarah Jane). So if the census is correct and he married a Jane, that would be another Warman connection but no FreeBMD hit for death of a Jane or Sarah Jane Major.
