I don't see the 2 Amoses anywhere in 1911.


Sorry if I'm way off base!!

Maureen

On those Christenings I put up for Levi and Amos, Levi's said John Etherington and Jane and Amos's said John Etherington and Jane Balchin. Thats why I thought maybe he had a wife before called Jane Kemp. Maybe he did'nt marry her either, it happens a lot.

This is a long shot

Maybe Amos & Jane wasn't married and thats why your Dad was registered as a Balchin. Did he have any siblings


To me Jane Kemp & Jane Balchin are 2 different people

No Maureen I think you are on the right track. Amos is the son of Amos I think.

There is this Jane and Reigate & Godalming are not far from each other

Julie thats what I have been saying but it's John and Jane Balchin and their son Amos Balchin 1860ish and as far as I can tell he had a son Amos too.

It would not fit if she was Levi's mum

England & Wales, FreeBMD Death Index: 1837-1915
about Jane Etherington
Name: Jane Etherington
Year of Registration: 1852
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar

But in one of Junes post she says that Amos Balchin's dad was Amos Ethrington b 1861, & that his parents were John Ethrington & Jane Kemp

And I'm trying to go backwards-not start in the middle!! grin

Maureen

Past info from Jean:

Hi MEL she is my Great Gran im doing the balchin side but cant get past keepers cottage were my dad was born. He is Amas Balchin born 1901 reigate

The AMOS 1860 redhill was his dad wed my nan in 1910 after my dad was born

.........................
Once again. Do you have the birth cert for Amos 1901??
Who are the parents??

Maureen

June not Jean

In that same post June says here

He is Amas Balchin born 1901 reigate.His dad was Amas ethrington born 1860 Redhill . mother jane balchin???

Cor, Julie!! So who do you suppose wed whom in 1910??

Maureen

Maureen..i can tell you who didn't lol

As June has gone i don't think theres any more we can do

Julie

Oh arn't we all in a muddle now!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were trying to find a Jane Balchin born 1817 who was living with a John Etherington with children Levi Etherington 1856 and Amos Etherington 1860/61.

Later Amos Etherington 1860 on the census changed his name to Balchin which was his mothers name.

He married under the name of Balchin and had a son Amos Balchin in 1900.

Well thats the way I see it.

And it's June not Jean. Lol

On Junes 1st post she says

iv got birth certificate for levi ethrington. dad john mum jane kemp
& that she was told Janes maiden name was Balchin

But on a B/C if Kemp was down as maiden name then where does the Balchin come into it

Thats why im thinking June has the 2 Janes muddle up ( no offence June)

oops best change it
