16 Feb 1631 John HICKMOTT/Joan SUNNYBANKE New W’sor Berk igi The LDS IGI shows that a Johanna Sonibanke was baptized at in Surrey on 25 November 1607. Her parents were Charles and Joane Sonibanke. She died at All Saints at Oxford in 1673. In her will she wished ‘to be buried at St Andrews Holborn, where her husband and five of her children are’ (the National Burial Index shows that a Mary ‘Hickmutte’ and a John Hickmott were buried at New Windsor in Berkshire on 30 April 1639 and 2 March 1642 respectively). Joane left the family’s estates to her only sister Elizabeth Longbaine, then a widow of Oxford. Sums of money were left to a number of nephews including Nathaniel and Thomas Chiles/Chyles. John’s will, proven in 1657, states he was a gentleman then living at Clifford’s Inn in London. He and

6 Joan were the freehold owners of Hartley Manor Farm (then called Daltons, later Hartley Wood Farm) at Hartley south of Cranbrook in Kent. They also had lands and tenements at Staplehurst and in Kent, Mersham in Surrey, Cuddesdon near Oxford, High Onger in Essex, and St Andrews at Holborn in Middlesex. John left his estate to the couple’s only son, Charles, who was born in around 1646 and died in 1668 while he was at Oxford. It seems that prior to his death, Charles may have married Mary Smith, the daughter of John Smith, at New Wickham in 1665 (see below). John also left sums of money to his ‘loving mother-in-law Mistress Joane Sunnibanke’, his ‘sister Longbane to buy mourning’, his niece Margaret Read, and to the joint overseers of his will, his brother-in-law Longbane and ‘cousin Thomas of Goudherst’.

12 Jul 1636 Gorge HICKMOT/Eliz RENNOLDES Goudhurst igi The Canterbury marriage licences show that George was from Horsmonden and was around 36 years old, Elizabeth was from Goudhurst, the widow of Robert Reynoldes. Bonds for the marriage were given by Francis Hickmott, mercer of Headcorn. The Cranbrook parish registers show that a George and Elizabeth Hickmott had a son, Jonas, baptized there on 5 Dec 1647.

7 12 Jul 1636 Francis HICKMOTE/Elizabeth BRIDGER Benenden Kent reg We think that Francis was the son of John and Anna Hickmott nee Wragley who were married at Horsmonden in 1605 and had a son, Fraunces, baptized there in 1610. The records of marriage at Canterbury show that Francis Hickmott of Headcorn, a mercer, stood bonds for the marriage of George Hickmott and Elizabeth Reynoldes at Goudhurst in 1636 (George, who was born at Horsmonden in around 1599, was either Frances’ step-brother or one of his cousins). Francis and Elizabeth had three children at Headcorn before the latter’s death there in 1641. Francis re-married in 1643, to Elizabeth Ellet at Headcorn. We haven’t as yet found out when and where Francis died. Known children, all born at Headcorn: John (1638-40), Mary (1641-41), John (1641)

Charles died at Oxford in 1867/8. In his will, proven in 1673, Charles was described as a gentleman of New Windsor in Berkshire. He left his estate largely to his mother, Joan, and amounts of money to his aunts Longbaine (Joan’s sister) and Andrews, uncle Wiberd, and various cousins: Nathaniel and Thomas Chyles, Christopher and Edward Potter, Gerran Longbaine, Thomas Lake, and cousins Rose, Offeley, Pollington and Sunnibanke. The will also included the interesting ‘Item: I do give and bequeath out of my due respect and love unto Mistress Mary Smith, daughter of Mr John Smith, the sum of £100... as a testimony of my affection to her and undeservedness of her virtues’, suggesting that the marriage may not have been consummated or was challenged by the family.

04 Apr 1774 Thomas HICKMOT/Esther COOK botp Yalding reg (Wit: James Letchford, Thomas Wood).

The local parish registers show that Stephen was buried at Frittenden on 7 March 1822. We think that Elizabeth was buried there in 1833.

The LDS index shows that a Jemima Kennard, daughter of Edward and Sarah, was baptized at in Kent on 31 July 1763. Jemima died in 1825 and was buried at Headcorn

23 on 22 July of that year. We think that James pre-deceased her by five years. Known children all baptized at Headcorn: James (1786), William (1789), Sarah (1790), John (1791), Mary (1791), Elizabeth (1793), Edward (1794-4), George (1796), Thomas (1798).

At the time of the 1841 census, Stephen and Hannah were living at Horsmonden. With them was their 25 year-old daughter Ann Hickmott and her two children Benjamin (3) and William Hickmott (5 weeks). Stephen and Hannah both died at Pembury, probably at the local union house, in 1844 and were buried at Brenchley. We haven’t as yet been able to determine Stephen’s parents.

01 Jan 1789 Stephen HICKMOTT/Rebecca HOBBS Horsmonden igi Stephen and Rebecca had two children at Horsmonden – Stephen (1789) and Harriet (1792) – three at Brenchley - John (1795), Richard (1797) and David (1800) – and possibly one at Pembury: Thomas (1803). We haven’t as yet been able to determine Stephen’s parents although his marriage record notes that he was from Brenchley which suggests that he may have been the son of John Hickmott and Elizabeth Miles and was baptized there on 15 December 1755.

03 Dec 1789 William HICKMOTT/Eliz MACE Horsmonden igi We think William was born at Lamberhurst in 1737, the third son of James and Mary Hickmott of that village. His last will and testament states that he was a yeoman farmer who held a number of parcels of land around Horsmonden. It seems that the family later moved to Marden. The 1841 census has a William Hickmot, aged 79, said to be independent and born in the county, living at Marden with a Mary Ladams aged 58 and also both independent and born in the county.

17 Nov 1790 Edward JEFFREY/Lydia HICKMOTT Brenchley igi Born at Lamberhurst in 1773, Lydia was the daughter of James and Mary Hickmott.

Lydia died the year of William’s birth. Edward died in 1849 and is buried at Brenchley. Their son William and his wife, Mary Ann Martin, and their family emigrated to Australia in 1838. One of his cousins, Edward Jeffery, and his family emigrated to New Zealand in 1874.

04 May 1791 Thomas HICKMOTT of Headcorn farmer/ Sarah WEEKS (minor, dau of Thos W, farmer) Headcorn Cant (Wit: Thomas Weeks and Thomas Ottaway.) Thomas was born in 1752, the second son of William and Elizabeth Hickmott (possibly nee Kemp). He died and was buried at Headcorn in 1827. The record of their marriage held at Canterbury shows that Sarah, who was then a minor, was the daughter of Thomas Weeks, a Headcorn farmer (the LDS index shows that a Thomas and Ann Weeks had a daughter, Sarah, baptized at Headcorn on 28 May 1770). Sarah and Thomas had eight children all born at Headcorn: John (1791-99), Ann (1793), Sarah (1794), Elizabeth (1795-95), Thomas (1798), William (1801), Ann (1807) and Joseph (1807). It is possible they had a daughter, Mary, baptized at Maidstone in 1810 and buried there with her mother two years later (the Maidstone registers show a Sarah Hickmott, wife of Thomas, was buried there on 27 September 1812).

After their marriage Henry and Sarah lived at Marden where Henry probably died in 1839.

09 Apr 1809 John HICKMOTT/Ann KEMSLEY Maidstone igi (Wit: W. Mitchell, John File). The UK censuses indicate that John was born at Chatham in Kent in around 1788. The LDS index shows that a John Hickmott, son of John and Jane was baptized at Chatham on 29 June 1789 (no record of a marriage of John and Jane there). The index also shows that Ann Kemsley, daughter of Robert and Alice, was baptized at East Malling on 5 February 1791. The 1841 census shows an Ann Hickmott (50) at Giblits Hole East Malling with Ann Harry (45) and her children Eliza (15), Ellen (10) and Amila (8). A William (30), Susan (19), Mary (17), Elizabeth (14), Henry (12) and John (8) were all together on Well Street in East Malling. The 1851 census has a John (63 year-old agricultural labourer born in Kent) and Ann Hickmott (61, East Malling) living in East Malling. John (73, Chatham) and Ann (72, East Malling) were on Well Street in East Malling in 1861 next door to their daughter-in-law Rosina Hickmott (31 year-old married gardener born at West Malling) and her three children: Mary A. (5, ), Frederick (2, East Malling) and Emily (5m, East Malling). Rosina was the wife of Henry. We think John and Ann both died at East Malling, he in 1865 and she in 1868. Known children: William (1810, Ditton), Maria (1813, Ditton), Marianne (1814, Ditton), Caroline (1819, Ditton), Susannah (1822, East Malling), Mary Ann (1824, East Malling), Elizabeth (1826, East Malling), Elizabeth (1829, East Malling), Henry (1829, East Malling), John (1832, East Malling).

Baptised at East Malling in 1785, John was the only son of John Hickmott and Mary Nixson (who were married at East Malling in 1780). Susanna was also born at East Malling, in 1793, the daughter of James and Susannah Yeomans nee Godden (married at east Malling in 1791). The LDS IGI indicates that John and Susannah had two children baptized at East Malling – James (1813) and Mary Ann (1817). The 1841 census shows a John (50 year-old farmer) and Susannah Hickmott (25) living at East Malling. The 1851 census shows John (66) and Susan (58) living at the Rocks at East Malling. The 1861 census shows John (76 year-old carpenter born at East Malling) and Susannah (68, East Malling) still living at the Rocks in East Malling with their unmarried son James (47, East Malling). The UK National Probate Index shows that John Hickmott, late of the Rocks in East Malling and husband of Susanna, died at East Malling on 5 September 1863 (probate was paid to Susanna). At the time of the 1871 census, Susanna, then aged 78, was an inmate at the East Peckham Union House. She died in 1879, aged 86 years. Known children: James (1813, East Malling), Mary Ann (1817, East Malling).

The parish registers show that an Ann Morris was baptized at Cranbrook in 1789 (parents unknown) and another in 1795 (dau of John and Mary Morris). The 1841 census shows George (50 year-old agricultural labourer) and Ann (50) living on Milkhouse Street in Cranbrook with their 13 year- old daughter Silvester. An Anna Hickmott, aged 53, was buried at Cranbrook in 1842. The 1851 census shows the widowed George (61) as a lodger at the home of Hannah Springett (a 53 year-old farmer born in Cranbrook) on Mill Lane in Cranbrook. The 1861 census has George (71 year-old widower and farmer of four acres) lodging on Sissinghurst Road in Cranbrook with his son William and his family. We think he died at Cranbrook the same year. Known children:

The 1851 census shows Thomas (62 year-old farmer of 60 acres) and Mary Ann (58, Frittenden) still at Pore Farm in Frittenden. Also present were their two children - Harriet (18, Frittenden) and Edward (23 year-old carpenter, Frittenden) – and a 16 year-old servant, Joseph Nye. Next door at ‘Chapple Cottage’ was their son James (31, Frittenden) with his wife Sarah (26, Biddenden) and their three children: James (6), Rachel (2) and Stephen (6 weeks) all of who were born at Frittenden.

01 Jun 1820 Thomas Coxe HICKMOTT/Mary HODGSKIN Lamberhurst reg Thomas was born at Wadhurst in around 1792, the illegitimate son of Sarah Hickmott and William Martin. Mary was born at Lamberhurst in 1801. They had five children before Mary’s death at Lamberhurst in 1829: James (1820)=Margaret Burton, Virgil (1822-41), Charles (1824-1831), William (1826)=Maria and Louisa (1828-44) where all were born at Lamberhurst. Following Mary’s death, Thomas married Thirza Smith at Lamberhurst in 1836 and had nine children with her.

26 Jul 1820 Mary HICKMOTT/Thomas NUNN Chatham Kent igi

26 Nov 1820 James HICKMOT/Martha Else B Monchelsea igi We think that James was the son of James Hickmott and Jemima Kennard who were married at Headcorn in 1788. The 1841 census shows a James (50) and Martha Hickmott (45) living at Headcorn where James was working as an agricultural labourer. With them were four children: Stephen (20), John (15) Charles (14) and Barbary (10). The family was still at Headcorn in 1851. James (64, Headcorn) was a pauper. Others there were Martha (60, B-Monchel), Thomas (19 year- old tea dealer) and Barbara (18) both of whom were born at Headcorn. James and Martha died and were buried at Headcorn in 1853 and 1854 respectively. Known children: Stephen (1821), John (1826), Charles (1827), Thomas (1832, Headcorn), Barbara Frances (1835, Headcorn)=William Warren.

08 Jan 1821 Stephen HICKMOTT/Mary EAGLES B Monchelsea igi Stephen was probably born at Brenchley, the son of Stephen and Hannah Hickmott nee Scrace who were married there in 1788 and had a son, Stephen, baptized there in 1793. The 1841 census has Stephen (a 45 year- old agricultural labourer) and Mary (40) living at ‘Hawkwell’ in Pembury with their 15 year-old daughter, Mary [born at Yalding in around 1821]. The 1851 census shows a Stephen (54, Brenchley) and Mary Hickmott (52, Yalding) living at ‘Hawkwell Cottage’ in Pembury. They were still at Pembury in 1861. Mary died some time before the 1871 census which shows the widowed Stephen (77, Brenchley) lodging at ‘Ambhurst Cottages’ in Pembury. The Catherine House index shows that Stephen died in 1872. Probable children: Mary Ann (1821, Yalding).

06 Mar 1821 William HICKMOT/Mary EVANS Mereworth Kent igi The 1841 census shows a William Hickmott (40) at ‘Hayses’ in Mereworth. Others present were: Thomas Hickmott (15), Ann

36 Hickmott (15), Fanny Hickmott (11) and Mary Evans (20). The 1851 census shows a William (49 year-old agricultural labourer born at Wadhurst) and Mary Hickmott (51, Haverford Wales) living at Mereworth with their grandson George Grice (8, Mereworth). Next door is a Thomas (27, Mereworth) and Mary Hickmott (23, Mereworth). I have not been able to find them in the 1861 census. Known children: Jane (1821, Mereworth), Thomas (1823, Mereworth), Elizabeth (1824, Mereworth), William (1826, Mereworth), Ann (1828, Mereworth), Frances (1830, Mereworth)

15 Mar 1821 William HICKMOTT of Brenchley/ Hannah WINGATE Maidstone mkmi (Wit: M. Featherston) William was born at Lamberhurst in 1796, the son of Thomas Hickmott and Elizabeth Whibley, and worked as ana gricultural labourer and beer-seller. Hannah was born at Chatham in Kent in around 1802. The censuses show that they had at least six children: Charles Thomas (1823, Lamberhurst), Harriet Hannah (1829, Chatham), William Richard (1833, Chatham), Karen (1834, Hendon M’sex), Alfred (1836, Staplehurst) and Hannah (1838, Staplehurst). We believe William died at Maidstone in 1860, Hannah died there a year later.

We Thomas died later that year. The 1861 census shows the widowed Elizabeth (63) as a visitor at the farm of James and Harriet Day of Spring Grove Marden. Known children: Caroline (1824, Marden), Ann (1826, Marden), Daniel (1828, Marden), Stephen (1830, Marden), Lydia Emily (1832-51, Marden), Alfred Edwin (1834, Marden), Ellen (1836, Marden), Hannah (1840, Marden).

24 Jun 1823 John HICKMOTT/Eliz THIRKELL Maidstone mkmi

37 (Wit: George and Sarah Thirkell). I am assuming this the right couple since they named one of their daughters Sarah ‘Thirkill’ (see below). Since they named their first daughter Elizabeth Burges, I am also assuming that John was born at Frittenden in 1793, the son of Stephen Hickmott and Elizabeth Burges. The LDS index shows that an Elizabeth Pennick Thirkle, the daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth, was baptized at Benenden in 1799. The 1851 census shows John (56 year-old farmer of 24 acres and grocer born at Frittenden) and Elizabeth (52, Benenden) at Balcombe House in Frittenden with five children, all born at Frittenden: Elizabeth B. (26), William (19), Olive (15), Hannah (18) and Eleanor E. (11). They were still there in 1861 together with: William (29), Olive (25) and Eleanor (21). John died and was buried at Frittenden on 21 October 1861 (whereupon his son William took over the farm). The 1871 census shows the widowed Elizabeth (71, Benenden) at the home of Eleanor (31, Frittenden) and William West (32 year-old butcher born at Crodon in Surrey) at 16 North End in Croydon. Also present were William and Eleanor’s children – Eleanor (7), William (3), John (1) and Kate (1m) all of whom were born at Croydon - as well as Eleanor’s two sisters: Elizabeth B. (45) and Hannah Hickmott (33) as well as three servants. Elizabeth died at Croydon in 1878. Known children all baptized at Frittenden: Elizabeth Burges (1825), Caroline Flethcher (1826), Mary Ann (1829), William (1832), Sarah Thirkill (1833), Olive (1836), Hannah (1837), Eleanor Elliot (1840).

38 nee Hardstone came from Eynsford in Kent. She and Richard seem to have had no children. Ancestry’s Natioanal Probate Index shows that Richard died at Pratts Bottom farm in Chelsfield Kent on 2 May 1869. Chelsfield MIs indicate that his wife pre-deaceased him: ‘Maria wife of Richard Hickmott of this parish died June 6 1865 aged 68. Also Richard Hickmott died May 2 1869 aged 72.’

14 Sep 1824 Samuel HICKMOTT/Eliz EDGESDORFF Shoreditch Lon igi/AE Wit: Daniel Baldock, Sarah Eddgesdorff. Samuel labourer. Although still to be confirmed, we think Samuel was born at Lamberhurst in 1803, the eldest son of Nathaniel and Patience Hickmott nee Smith (who were married at St George Hanover Square in London in 1799). Ancestry’s London births and baptisms database shows he and Elizabeth had three children before Samuel’s death in 1843: Louisa Hickmott (bap 1827)=Charles Egersdorff in 1852, George Hickmott (1829)=Lucy Maria Smith in 1859 and James Hickmott (1831)=Emma Felton in 1857. The 1851 census has Elizabeth Hickmott, a 40 year-old shoebinder born at Cripplegate in Middlesex, living in St Botolph Bishopgate in Middlesex with her 21 year-old daughter Louisa Hickmott, also a shoebinder.

29 May 1825 James HICKMOTT/Sarah TICEHURST Lamberhurst reg Born at Lamberhurst in 1793, James was the eldest son of John Hickmott and Sarah Bailey. Sarah was born at Dallington in Sussex in 1799. The 1851 census shows James (58 year-old pauper and late government postman born at Lamberhurst) and Sarah (52, Dallington Sussex) living on High Street in Cranbrook with their six children: William (23), James (20), Henry (18), Sarah Ann (16), Hannah (13) and John (9). The 1861 census shows James (68, Lamberhurst) and Sarah (62, Dallington) living on ‘The Hill’ in Cranbrook with their son John (19, Lamberhurst). Their son James Hickmott (30, Lamberhurst) and his wife Elizabeth (29, Falmer Syssex) were living two doors away. Sarah died at Cranbrook in 1866.

He and Sarah seemed to have lived at Marden, Boughton-Monchelsea and Bearsted after their marriage. We think that Henry may have died at Bearsted in 1850. The 1851 census shows the widowed Sarah (42, Marden) living on Church Lane at Bearsted. With her were: John (21), William (16), Edwin (12), Thomas (10), Charles (8), Alfred (5, ), Sarah A. (2, Bearsted) and Mathew (3m, Bearsted). She was living on Bearsted Street Bearsted in 1861 together with Edwin, Thomas, Alfred, Sarah and Mathew. Her eldest son, John and his wife Sarah Ann (28, Maidstone) were living next door with their four children: Elizabeth (9), Henry (7), Sarah A. (5) and Caroline (2) where all were born at Bearsted.

The 1851 census shows the widowed Stephen (50) living at Frant with his son Frederick (18, Frant) and niece Mary Hickmott (12, Frant) plus two servants. The 1871 census shows Stephen (60 year-old farmer of 140 acres) living at Mayfield in Sussex with his son Frederick (28) and daughter Elizabeth (26). We think that Stephen died in 1776.

James (65 year-old farmer of 9 acres and born at Frittenden) and Elizabeth (72, Goudhurst) were at Hayland Farm in Smarden in 1851 along with a lodger and five servants.

The 1841 census shows William (40 year-old farmer) and Lydia (35) at Eastwood in Ulcombe with their two children – William (3) and Elizabeth (1) – and two servants: Sarah and Sophia Watts. Lydia died, aged 38, in 1842 and was buried at Frittenden. The 1851 census has the widower William (52 year-old farmer of 130 acres born at Frittenden) at Lashenden Farm with his unmarried brother James (59), tow children – William (12) and Elizabeth (10) – and four servants. William (61) and James (59) and William’s two children were still there in 1861 plus two servants. William died at Frittenden in 1868. Known children: William (1838, Ulcombe), Elizabeth (1840, Ulcombe).

He was born at West Farleigh in 1813. Mary Ann was born at Rotherfield in Sussex in around 1819 (the LDS index shows that an Anne Maynard, daughter of Edward and Mary Maynard was baptized at Rotherfield in 1819). The censuses indicate that the family lived at East Farleigh in 1851 and Yalding in 1861 (Charles’ mother, Mary Hickmott, aged 77 years and born at West Farleigh, was living with them at the time) and 1871 (the three year-old Charles Day was a visitor). Mary Ann died the following year, aged 53 years. The 1881 census shows the widower Charles living by himself in Yalding. We are not sure when and where Charles died. The censuses and local parish registers show that Charles and Mary Ann had at least six children: Mary (1837, East Farleigh), Matilda (1839, East Farleigh), Eliza (1841, East Farleigh), James (1843, West Farleigh), Charles (1846, West Farleigh), William (1847, West Farleigh), Ann (1848, West Farleigh), Louisa (1850, East Farleigh), George (1853, East Farleigh), William Page (1855, East Farleigh), Eliza Matilda (1857, Yalding) and Kate Maynard (1860, Yalding). Charles probably re-married after Mary Ann’s death in 1872, to a widow Sarah Parramore at Yalding in 1874. We think that Sarah died in 1880. We have not as yet found when and where Charles died.

45 Stephen was born at Yalding in 1813 and worked as a carpenter. Harriot was born at Langley in Kent in 1816 and died at in 1858. Her mother was Jane Smith. Stephen and Harriot lived all their married lives in Boughton Monchelsea and had at least eleven children there: Mary Ann (1837), Sophia (1839), Jane (1840), Sarah (1845), Thomas (1847), Maria (1848), John (1850), Elizabeth (1851), Helena (1853), Stephen (1854), William (1858). Following Harriot’s death, Stephen married Amelia Sunnock at Maidstone in 1865. They had no children. He died there in 1886. According to one of their descendants, John Francis Hickmott of Wellington, Stephen and Harriot’s son and daughter, John and Elizabeth, emigrated from England to Christchurch in New Zealand in 1776. Their brother William came later in around 1885. While the family think that Elizabeth may have returned home, John and William remained in New Zealand.

17 Jan 1837 Thomas HICKMOTT/Elizabeth JUDGE Frittenden Kent igi (Wit: Stephen Hickmott, Ann Munk, Ann Wise). In view of the witnesses, we think that Thomas was the son (born at Frittenden in around 1815) of Thomas and Mary Ann Hickmott nee Wraight (who were married at Frittenden in 1813). We suspect that Elizabeth died at Frittenden in 1838/9 while giving birth to the couple’s daughter Emily (who died the same day – see below). The 1841 census shows Thomas (25 year-old agricultural labourer) living with his parents and siblings at Pore Farm in Frittenden. We think that Thomas later married the widow Alice Bowles in the Cranbrook RD in 1846. He and she had a daughter, Mary Ann Hickmott, before John’s death at Frittenden in 1857.

1838 Abraham HICKMOTT/Caroline BURTON Malling bmd (The censuses show Abraham was born at Brenchley in around 1813, the son of Stephen and Hannah Hickmott nee Scrace (who were married at Brenchley in 1788). Caroline was born at Horsmonden in around 1820, probably the daughter of Richard and Sarah Burton. The LDS index shows that she had a daughter, Mary Ann Hickmott Burton, baptized at Horsmonden in 1838. The 1841 census shows Abraham (28) and Caroline (20) living at Horsmonden where Abraham worked as an agricultural labourer. With them were their two daughters: Mary Ann (2) and Ellen (1m) both of whom were born at Horsmonden. They were at Brenchley in 1851 with six children: Mary Ann (12), Ellen (9), William (7, Horsmonden), Dallsey (5, Brenchley), Thomas (2, Brenchley) and Sarah (1, Brenchley). Still there in 1871 with Thomas (23), Sarah (21), Charles (19), Kate (14), Frederick (10) and Caroline (7) where all children were born at Brenchley.

47 1839 Silas HICKMOTT/Jane BRIDGER Cranbrook bdm Silas was born at Frittenden in around 1808, the son of William and Sarah Hickmott nee Gower (who were married at Frittenden in 1794). Census data and the MIs for Smarden indicate that Jane was born at ‘Halden’ in Kent and died at Smarden in 1857, aged 40 years. The 1841 census shows Silas (35 year-old farmer) and Jane (20) living at Friend House in Frittenden with their son James (1) and a female servant, Esther Watts. Silas (45, Frittenden) and Jane (34, Halden) were still at Friend Farm in 1851 along with their children: James (11), Jane (9), Mary (7), Elizabeth (3) and William (6m) all of whom were born at Frittenden. Jane died at Frittenden on 16 July 1857, leaving eight children. The 1861 census shows the widower Silas (54 year-old farmer of 18 acres) living at Weaver Den House in Frittenden with his seven children: Jane (19), Mary (17), Elizabeth (13), William (10), Ellen (7), Silas (4) and Anne (4). Silas died at Weaversden Farm on 13 February 1870. His will was proved by Thomas Chapman of North Lodge Staplehurst and James Pearson of Admans Green Farm Smarden.

20 Apr 1840 John HICKMOTT/Harriet JURY Maidstone mkmi Marriage details on the Genealogist website show that John was a cooper and innkeeper (of the Kings Arms at Boxley), the son of Walter Hickmott, labourer. Harriet was the daughter of Edward Jury a victualler. The wedding, held at All saints in Maidstone was witnessed by Samuel Wyand and James Ruck. We think that John was born at Maidstone in around 1815, son of Walter and Mary Hickmott nee Whyman who were married at Maidstone in 1798. The UK censuses show that Harriet was born at Maidstone in 1821 (the LDS index shows that a Harriet Jury, daughter of Edward and Elizabeth, was baptized at Maidstone on 22 December 1820). The censuses and parish registers show the couple had the following children at Maidstone: Harriet (1841), Edward (1843-9), Walter (1846), John Henry (1847), William (1850), Edward (1850), Robert (1852) and Charles (1856, Boxley). John, who worked as a cooper and then innkeeper, died at Boxley in 1872 (his will was proved by his widow Harriet). Harriet continued on as innkeeper of the Kings Arms and was there in 1881 along with her children Harriet (38), William (31 year-old barman), Edward (31 year-old professional cricketer) and a grandson Albert E. Hickmott (7, London). By the time of the 1891 census William was the innkeeper of the Kings Arms and his mother Harriet and twin brother Edward (still described as a cricketer) were both living there. They were all still there in 1901. Also present were William’s wife Mary Ann (42, Bentley Worcestershire) and seven year-old son, William Edward who was born at Boxley. We think that Harriet died at Maidstone in 1904 although that has still to be

48 confirmed.

Elizabeth was the dau of James Jenner (farmer). The wedding was witnessed by William and Hannah Hickmott. We believe that Edward was born at Lamberhurst in 1791, the son of Thomas Hickmott and Elizabeth Whibley (who were married there in 1788). The UK censuses show that Edward and Elizabeth were at Plain Farm in Staplehurst in 1841 and Clapham in Surrey thereafter where Edward was working as a dairyman and beer seller. Edward died at Clapham in 1872. Elizabeth had pre-deceased him by four years. Known children: Caroline (1842, Staplehurst), Theodore Charles (1844, Staplehurst) and Emma (1854, Clapham).

18 Oct 1841 Jane HICKMOTT/Thos FANCETT Maidstone mkmi Maidstone parish registers show that Jane was the daughter of James Hickmott (labourer) and Thomas the son of Thomas (labourer). The wedding was witnessed by Robert Dove and Elizabeth Costen. Jane Elizabeth was born at West Farleigh in around 1822, the daughter of James Hickmott and Mary Dove. The 1851 census shows Jane and Thomas (a 31 year-old agricultural labourer born at East Farleigh) were living on Farleigh Green in West Farleigh with their five children: Sarah (8), Mary (4), William (3), Eliza (1) and Jane (2 weeks). Also present was a visitor Jane Pearson (18 year-old nurse born at West Farleigh).

He married Caroline Waghorn nee Larkin at East Malling in 1841 and lived at West Farleigh all his life working first as an agricultural labourer and then as a beer retailer. He and Caroline, who was born at East Farleigh in around 1811, seem only to have had one child, Caroline Sophia (1848, West Farleigh). Samuel and Caroline died at West Farleigh in 1879 and 1880 respectively. The UK National Probate Calendar shows that Caroline was late of West Farleigh but died at Old Brompton on 1 February. Her will was proved jointly by George Beecher of East Farleigh and her son-in-law William Fry, a licensed victualler of Old Brompton (who had married their only

49 daughter, Caroline Sophia, married in the Medway RD in 1869).

1842 John HICKMOTT/Harriet HAYTER Cranbrook bdm John was born at Frittenden in around 1822, the son of Thomas Hickmott and Mary Ann Bate or Wraight (who were married at Frittenden in 1813). The 1851 census shows John (29 year-old agricultural lbaourer born at Frittenden) and Harriet (29, Frittenden) living at ‘Hickens Cottage’ at Frittenden with their two children: William Thomas (8) and Harriet (6) both of whom were born at Frittenden. They were at ‘Brook Cottages’ in 1861 with their daughter Harriet (16). The 1871 census shows them at ‘White Cottage’ at Frittenden with their unmarried son William (29), granddaughter Mary A. Hickmott (4, Frittenden) and John’s widowed mother Mary Ann (79, Frittenden). John (59), Harriet (59) William Thomas (39) and Mary Ann (14) were still at Frittenden in 1881. Harriet died in either 1888 or 1890. The 1891 census shows John (69 year-old widower and farm labourer born at Frittenden a pauper in the Cranbrook Union Workhouse. Although still to be confirmed, we think that John died there in 1894. Known children: William Thomas (1843, Frittenden) and Harriet (1844, Frittenden).

Also present were Eliza’s mother Charlotte Norburn (60, Maidstone) and her three siblings: Elizabeth (25), Charles (22) and Henry (21) all of whom were born at Maidstone. The family seems to have moved apart after the deaths of William and Eliza’s two youngest children. In 1871 William (63 and married) was lodging by himself in East Maidstone. Eliza (58) was working as a monthly nurse for the Merralls of Upper Frant Road in West Maidstone. We think that William died at Maidstone in 1878.

1845 John Vidler HICKMOTT/Sarah Maria BUSS Maidstone bdm A codicil to the will of John’s grandfather John Hickmott (1763-1854) of Lamberhurst, indicates that John Vidler was the illegitimate son of John senior’s daughter Sarah Hickmott.

John and Maria were living at the Staplehurst village post office in 1861 together with their four children: Sarah (14), Jane (9), Ann (5) and William (3) all of whom were born at Staplehurst. We believe that John and his wife and at least one daughter emigrated to the United States sometime after 1861. John became the Reverend John Vidler Hickmott of Steubenville, Pleasant Lake Indiana.

We think that Mary Ann died there the following year.

16 Jan 1856 Stephen HICKMOTT/Harriet POWELL Cranbrook bdm Parents Thomas Hickmott and William Powell. The censuses show that Stephen was born at Frittenden in around 1817, most likely the son of Thomas and Mary Ann Hickmott nee Wraight (who were married at Frittenden in 1813). The 1851 census shows the unmarried Stephen (33 year-old bailiff born at Frittenden) at Whitewell in Cranbrook, the home of Stephen (32, Cranbrook) and Margaret Jenner (27, Mountfield Sussex). In 1861 Stephen (44 year-old farmer of 30 acres) and Harriet 39, Cranbrook) were at Sissinghurst with their three children – Mary Ann (5), Stephen (2) and James (9m), all of whom were born at Cranbrook – and Harriet’s widower father, William Powell (71, Cranbrook). I haven’t been able to find them in the 1871 census. The 1881 census shows Stephen (63 year- old farmer) and Harriet (59) at Pore Farm in Frittenden with their three children: Mary Ann (25), Stephen (22) and James (20). Ancestry’s National Probate Index shows that Stephen Hickmott died at Frittenden on 10 October 1886. His will was proved by James Harris, farmer, of Frittenden and his sons Stephen and James Hickmott, both farm servants of Frittenden. Harriet died in either 1888 or 1890.

The 1861 census shows William (37 year-old farmer of 70 acres) and Mary (38, Frittenden) living at Little Boy Court at Ulcombe. With them were their three children - Julia (5, Frittenden), Thomas (2, Ulcombe) and William (1, Ulcombe) – and three servants.

William died in 1889. The 1891 census shows the widowed Mary (68) still at Cole Farm Cottage. With her was her son John (29, Frittenden). We think that Mary died there in 1890.

The 1861 census shows Charlotte Adams (25 year-old shoebinder born at Maidstone) living with her widowed mother Ann Hickmott (49, Biddenden) at 14 Temple Court West Maidstone (Ann’s age is probably wrong). At the time of the 1871 census, Charlotte and James, a 49 year-old labourer born in Norfolk) were living in the Lambeth district of London.

The 1881 census shows the widowed Eleanor (50 and reired) living at 45 Melville Road in East Maidstone. With her were her three children – Frederick (15), George (13) and Edith Annie (9) all of whom were born at Maidstone. She was at 145 Union Street in 1891 with her daughter Edith. I couldn’t find her in the 1901 census (it is possible that she and her daughter Edith went to India where the latter was married in 1894). Known children all born at Maidstone: Henry (1860-60), Eleanor Mary (1863-77), Frederick (1866), George (1868) and Edith Annie (1872)=Henry Harwood Browne.

They were at Islington in 1871 along with a son, Thomas Henshaw (7 and born in Middlesex). Charles died sometime between then and the 1881 census which shows Harriett (48, Norwood Surrey) and her son Thomas (17 year-old plumber born at dalston in Middlesex) living at Merton in Surrey.

The 1881 census shows Phoebe (28, Marden) and George (33 year-old plate layer born at Ditton) living at the Village Hall in Cheriton in Kent.

Thomas (52), Kate (49) and Annie (18 year-old domestic servant) were at (Park Cottage) Frittenden in 1911. The census return shows that Thomas and Kate had had five children four of whom were living. We think that Kate died in the Hollingbourne RD in 1933 (the UK National Probate Calendar shows that a Kate Alice Hickmott, wife of Thomas, a painter, died at Bearsted on 23 September 1933. Thomas probably died in the Crewe RD of Cheshire in 1940. Known children: Thomas (1884, Frittenden), Kate (1886, Frittenden), Bertha (1890, Biddenden) and Ann (1893, Frittenden).
