Father Richard HUNT, [Parents?], b. Abt 1701, Maidstone, Kent, England , d. Apr 1771, Lenham, Kent, England (Age ~ 70 years) Mother Isabella BECON, b. Abt 1706, Lenham, Kent, England , d. Abt Feb 1771, Lenham, Kent, England (Age ~ 65 years) Married 15 Feb 1724/25 All Saints’ Church, Canterbury, Kent, England - From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 21 Feb 2013):
Under "Marriages" and "1724" - "Richard Hunt & Isabella Beacon both of Lenham _ _ } Feb: .5" - I think that the dot that appears before the 5 is all that remains of a '1', which agrees with information I was given regarding the marriage licence.
