Does anybody have any information on a John Bartholomew born 1744-1795. He lived I believe in Gravesend, Kent , England. He was married to Sarah Mason also from Gravesend I think. Her dates are 1745-1789. I have traced one son John Bartholomew 1764-1816. He was married to Sarah Hutcheon 1770-1838. Any information on either John or his wife Sarah Mason would be extremely useful. Regards Edwin Wadhams.
