    Information was given to me about Kezia and the fact that she married a John SPARKS, and it does appear that there is a Kezia born 1836 in Chiddingfold, Surrey, However I am starting to have doubts if this is indeed Kezia NEWMAN, I cannot find a marriage for her on the BMD, on Ancestry, marriages 1538-1940 there is a Keziah NEMMAN who married a William SPARKS on 4th January 1858 in Montisfont, Hampshire, but the christian name and the place do not tie up. The is a marriage in Shoreditch in London of a Kezia to a Thomas SPARKS in December quarter of 1864 but it is a Kezia RAYNSFORD, and then on the 1891 Census the daughter of Kezia and Thomas was a boarder, I think with her sister Alice, but after Kezia there is a Jane RAINSFORD, cousin which is quite a coincidence and therefore leads me to believe that the Kezia RAYSNFORD marriage to Thomas SPARKS is correct. Of course Kezia NEWMAN could have married A RAYNSFORD first and then remarried as Keziah RAYNSFORD to Thomas SPARKES but I cannot find a marriage with that combination.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
