    • Register entry (from image on FMP, viewed 5 Aug 2015)
      "Banns of Marriage between William Ellen of the Parish of Elmsted
      and Abigail Halke of this Parish
      were published on the three Sundays underwritten:
      That is to say, On Sunday, the 26th. of Sepr. 1762 by me E: Filmer Rector of Crundale
      On Sunday, the 3d. of October 1762 by me E: Filmer Rectr of Crundale
      On Sunday, the 10th. of October 1762 by me E: Filmer Rectr: of Crundale"
    Married 13 Oct 1762  St. James the Great Church, Elmstead, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 5 Aug 2015)
      "1762 Oct 13 William Ellen of this Parish & Abigail Halke of Godmersham were married by Banns"
      Gravestone shows Abigail was the daughter of a William Halke as well as the wife of William Ellen, and is next to that of the William Halke who I believe was her father (and which mentions his daughter Abigail), so there can be little doubt that it was this Abigail who married William Ellen, despite her being unexpectedly shown as 'of Godmersham' at the time of her marriage.
      Five children listed (William, Thomas, Halke, Mary and Elizabeth) were those left a bequest by their aunt Frances Halke, and so living when she wrote her will in Nov 1790.
    Children 5 children
