    7. [S2445] Fiona Smallman, Fiona Smallman, (2004), Hi there, i have received a large quantity of excellent and very helpful information from you, thanks, but i desperately need help finding Charles George Featherstone, born abt 1879 in Throwley, Kent. He was the only surviving child from the marriage of George Featherstone, [b. abt.1854] and Barbara Ellen Featherstone nee Morris, [b. abt. 1859]. They were living in Boughton Aluph, Kent in 1881 census, but by the 1891 census George was living with his son and another woman, Alice, and his wife Barbara [or Ellen] was a patient in the county Lunatic Assylum in Chartham. She died in 1892 at the age of 34. Can anyone help me please? Thanks in anticipation, Fiona Smallman. fionasmall2002@btinternet.com 10 December 2004.

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.
