• Notes

  John Milsted, Jr. was the first born and only surviving male child of the two sons that had been born to John Milsted, Sr. and Mary (nee Sherlock). Where his father's family had an over-abundance of female children, John, Jr's. own family consisted mostly of boys - 7 of his 12 children, in fact, were boys. According to the 1841 census, John, Jr. was living at the Faversham Arms with his second wife, Sarah, and their daughter, Mary. He was then employed as a shipwright. By 1842 he appears on the Burgess Rolls for Faversham as owning a house on Ospringe Road and appears on those rolls every year thereafter until 1847. John died during 1848. His second wife died sometime between 1841 and 1851. A John Milsted was licensee of the Faversham Arms in Faversham from 1845 or earlier until 1847 or later. In light of the residence given on the 1841 census, I believe that John, Jr. is the fellow in question as the only other logical candidate would be his son, John. However, that younger John never did appear to move into Faversham at any time and in fact also disappears from Luddenham after the birth of Susannah. (See the notes for John Milsted, III.)
