- RESEARCH_NOTES:
1. 7 Sep 1979 letter from Rector Derek Carpenter (copy on file) of the Parish Church of St. Paulinus Crayford, Rectory, 1, Claremont Crescent, Crayford, Kent, DA1 4RJ: "Dear Mr. Petersen, I have had only limited success in searching the Registers of the Parish of Crayford as you requested. There are no marriages relating to the Morgan family for the period that you mention, nor were Banns of Marriage called for anyone of that name for the same period. There appears, however, to be two families by the name of Morgan mentioned in the Baptism Registers:
Richard, the son of William and Ann Morgan, was born on 15th July 1807 and baptised on 2nd August 1807.
And then, obviously another family: Eliza, daughter of Thomas and Mary Morgan, baptized January 29, 1815 and Thomas, son of Thams and Mary Morgan, baptised February 22nd, 1817.
I hope that this will be of some help to you."
2. Email from Val Bray [valjoy.bray@yahoo.com.au] 30 Jul 2006: Per FHL 1469337, this is what I found. These are the only Morgans in the village of Crayford: Eliza bapt.29 Jan 1815, parents Thomas and Mary Morgan, Thomas buried 6 Nov 1817 aged 39, Thomas (jnr) bapt. 22 Feb 1818, parents Thomas and Mary, Sophia buried 7 Apr 1825 aged 22, Jane Morgan bapt. 4 Oct 1829, mother Harriett, Marianne, born 16 Oct 1848, and Eliza bapt.28 Jul 1850 parents Thomas and Mary (jnr ?), Emma buried 29 Jan 1854 aged 2. In the 1841 census for Crayford is Mary Morgan 60 and James Morgan aged 8. Are these yours? [My note: I am not sure without more research.]
