    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."

Perhaps check Burials in Folkstone Cem. to see if he is buried with wife, Susannah, maybe that would state his age at death. Unfortunately, the Father's both being John's, will be difficult to establish correct person. c.# 1/9/1802, Folkestone, KEN - Parents: John MAJOR and An (NOTE: This is the line I have listed) c.# 31/8/1803, Folkestone, KEN - Parents: John MAJOR and Eliz

    Notes:

    Baker and Elizabeth appear to be the first Spearpoints to have left the Church of England and defected to the Zion Baptist chapel. Maybe this has something to do with the spelling of his name changing to 'Spearpoynt'. Note also that all the IGI entries for their children are shown as 'birth' rather than 'christening'.
