Family William COAST, b. Abt 1803, Lenham, Kent, England , d. Sep Q 1869, Hollingbourne Reg Dist, Kent, England (Age ~ 66 years) Married 3 Dec 1825 All Saints’ Church, Maidstone, Kent, England - From mid-Kent marr index - 1825 03 December, HUNT Maria to William Coast, Maidstone (All Saints)
William's half sister Ann also married a Hunt - John Hunt. Obviously Hunt is a common surname but I thought there might be a link. The John she married was born about 1822 in Rotherhithe; but how had they met? The married in 1852 and at the time of the 1851 census Ann was visiting her half-sister Martha Rattenbury (nee Coast) and her family, in Rotherhithe. I think Ann probably met John while staying with Martha, and there is probably no link between John Hunt and my Hunt ancestors, but haven't ruled out the possibility that John was from a family who had moved from Lenham to Rotherhithe.
John and Ann Hunt did not use any of the distinctive names used in the family that would suggest a link to the Lenham family (Basil, Springfield, Sibella)
