    • GRO ref: Whitehead, William q2 1864 Maidstone RD 2a 308; GRO online index shows age at death as 48
      (In the 1861 census, but his wife a widow in the 1871 census; the above is the only likely death registration. Also, living in Maidstone at the time of the 1861 census explains the RD of death.)

    Notes 
    • I think that the wife and children shown here are probably those of this William as the husband / father of this family is shown as a gamekeeper and I think aged 35 in the 1851 census; his cousin William of a similar age was with his parents in 1851. Also, this William's father was a gamekeeper.

    • With Edward and Catherine in 1851 was a Charles, aged 19, shown as nephew. He was listed after their own children, both older and younger. In the 1841 census a Charles, aged 9, was listed between their children but I think it probable that he too was Edward's nephew. Although there is a gap between their children when Charles could have been born, it is noticeable that I have found the baptisms of their other children, but cannot find one for a son of theirs named Charles.
      (I am assuming that 'nephew' meant what we would understand by the term now, and Charles was the son of Edward's sister Ann rather than his daughter Ann, though the age of the latter would make her the more likely mother - see my notes against the birth of Charles).
