Kent

Going Round in Genealogical Circles by Monica Ryan. An updated article originally published in the Kent FHS Journal concerning some of the Ushers in Kent.

Rebecca Alice USHER (who was my George Usher ATKINS grandmother) was born/bapt. 16th May, 1802 in Faversham, Kent. She married Edward BRENCHLEY on 30th March, 1829 in Faversham and died there in 1858.
They in turn had amongst other children Charlotte who married James Fielder ATKINS.
Rebecca was the daughter of Edward USHER born circa 1780 and Joyce CAIN, born/bapt. 29 Jan, 1783 in Stalisfield, Kent.

Here are the USHERs as they appear in my family tree. I am especially interested in John USHER b.1818 who was registered in the 1881 census as being a Barge Owner. I would like to find out the name of the barge (a Spritsail Barge ?) and wondered if anyone could tell me the best way to go about this.
