Frederick Solly b. 1819 Canterbury

[johnpeace]

I am interested in a Solly family from Canterbury. Frederick Solly was a grocer for many years in Canterbury. His parents were Stephen Solly and Rebecca. Frederick married Frances (surname unknown) ca 1847 and had 7 children, including Frederick William (or Walter) bn. 1850. He was a hotel waiter in Canterbury.

Any help on this family would be gratefully received, particularly earlier generations. It is possible Stephen was bn ca 1773 with parents Stephen and Mary (?Steed).

Hello Tony

I am happy to send you a copy of Frederick's ancestors but it is some 16 pages long (56.0 kb) and exceeds the forum limit of 39.1 kb!

If you are able to let me have your E Mail address I will forward it to you.

Best Wishes
Sue
