    Notes 
    • A pauper in the workhouse in Milton-next-Sittingbourne in 1861.

      A James was born in Bobbing (acc to 1851 census) or Borden (acc to 1861 and 1871 census) in abt 1800 - was this a son of this James? Or the son of Matthew, bapt in Hucking?
      I think this James was probably the son of another James, born c. 1765-1771, as this older James was with the family in 1841
