Selena in South East London Report 21 Jan 2014 18:47

Can anyone help me please. I have been asked to produce a tree to display at a funeral next week(!) Here is the 1881 census living in Shropshire

Charles Kent 71 born Middlesex
Edith 16, Shropshire
Lionel, 9, Shrop
Maud, 7 Shrop

I believe Charles and/or his son were Reverends.
I have Charles marriage to Henrietta Knight 1855 . She may have been Julia Blanche Henrietta Knight or he may have had another wife.

Any help is much appreciated
Selena
