Notes:

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.

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'.

Baker married Elizabeth HAWKES on 4 May 1774 in Folkestone, , Kent, England. Elizabeth (daughter of Thomas HAWKES and Elizabeth) was christened on 28 Sep 1754 in Westminster, , , England; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
