    1. [S2350] Robert KEMSLEY, Robert KEMSLEY, (2017), Good morning Paul from Australia:
      I am currently researching the FEATHERSTONE family and more so Priscilla (Naomi) FEATHERSTONE b) Sep ¼ 1852, Hollingbourne District, Kent, England who in 1873, Married Thomas HOLLAND (Sergeant Royal Marines) b) Jun ¼ 1844 Barrow Upon Soar District, Leicestershire, England.
      Thus far: Thomas HOLLAND cannot be found in the 1851 Census and died after the 1881 Census.
      But it’s Priscilla FEATHERSTONE who cannot be found in the 1861 & 1871 Census and reappears in the 1881, 1891, 1901 & 1911 Census.
      I am told Priscilla d) Mar ¼ 1923, Maidstone District, Kent, England.
      Would you have any idea as to where Priscilla may have been for the 1861 & 1871 Census?
      My connection to the family is through Thomas & Priscilla’s Daughter Susannah Maria HOLLAND who married John Richard KEMSLEY, an elder Brother of my Grandfather, Nathaniel Alfred KEMSLEY.
      Regards:
      Robert KEMSLEY.

Our Names

The spelling of the name Featherstone has varied over the centuries, with additions and subtractions. Here is the list that we have registered with the Guild Of One Named Studies.

Featherstone, Featherston, Fetherstone, Fetherston, Featherstonhalgh, Featherstonehaugh, Featherstonhaugh, Fetherstonehaugh, Fetherstonhaugh.

We have examples from the Birth, Marriage and Death indexes where people were registered at birth with the final 'e' missing and were married with the final 'e' in the surname. The 'haugh' is more difficult to prove, but people have suddenly adopted it for no apparent reason, although we have instances where people adopted the name, usually when money was involved.
