Some labourers being employ’d in mending the Road wch. leads from Kenville (ye Seat of Thomas THOMSON Esq) to Swerdling Downs, this last Summer (1758) just where the Road leads out of the Lane, and winds to the Left hand to go on the Down, in the Right hand Bank of the Road they discovered an Human Skeleton, which lay partly in the Bank, and partly cross (15b) the Road; That Part wch. lay in the Road was not above 6 inches under the Surface, and but little of it to be found. That part wch. lay in the Side or Bank of the Road, was at the Depth of about 2 feet and a Half; and the Bones, consisting of the Skull etc, to the Hips, were very firm. It seemd to have been buried in Haste, or, cast into its Grave, Neck & Shoulders, as we call it; for The under jaw was, strongly cemented with the Collar Bone and 2 uppermost Ribs on the Left Side. There were no Reliques of any sort found with it by which any Judgement could be form’d how it came there: but, as there are 2 very fair Roman Camps just by, viz: in Iffin, & Pond Wood, and just by Swerdling the 2 Latter of wch., I myself, fist discovered., this last year (1758). It is more than probable that it fell in some Skirmish thereabouts. It lay due North and South, with its Head to the North. 23. At Kenville, The Seat of Thomas THOMSON Esq. are the Bass and Capital of a very large Gothick Stone Pillar, The former is used for an Horse Block. How they came here is not known, there being no Ruins in the Neighbourhood from whence they cd. have been brought. The Capital of Another, wrought somewhat after the Corinthian Order is to be seen in the Yard of The Deanary House at Chartham. (See page 28). 24. The Aylebourn which, occasionally, runs through this Parish, has its first Source in a Cellar, belonging to a Farm, calld Deane, in ye Parish of Elmstead. When it runs through, as they call it, wch. very seldom happens (perhaps not once in 50 Years) it empties itself into the Stoure, between Shalmford (sic) Bridge (in ye Parish of Chartham) & Chilham – it run through about ye 24th of February this Year – viz: 1772.

===============================================================================
In Elmsted:

The manor of Dane, now called Deane court, above mentioned, remained in the name of Cloake for some time, when, in 1662, Mr. Samuel Cloake held it. It afterwards passed to the family of the Elmes, of Marcham, in Berkshire, who dying in 1789, devised it by will to his nephew, Thomas Timms, esq.


THE YOKE OF EVINGTON is an estate and seat in the south-west part of this parish, over which the manor of Barton, near Canterbury, claims jurisdiction. The mansion of it, called Evington-court, was the inheritance of gentlemen of the same surname, who bore for their arms, Argent, a sess between three burganetts, or steel caps, azure; and in a book, copied out from antient deeds by William Glover, Somerset herald, afterwards in the possession of John Philipott, likewise Somerset, there was the copy of an old deed without date, in which William Fitzneal, called in Latin, Filius Nigelli, passed over some land to Ruallo de Valoigns, which is strengthened by the appendant testimony of one Robert de Evington, who was ancestor of the Evingtons, of Evington-court, of whom there is mention in the deeds of this place, both in the reigns of king Henry III. and king Edward I. After this family was extinct here, the Gays became possessed of it, a family originally descended out of France, where they were called Le Gay, and remained some time afterwards in the province of Normandy, from whence those of this name in Jersey and Guernsey descended, and from them again those of Hampshire, and one of them, before they had left off their French appellation, John le Gay, is mentioned in the leiger book of Horton priory, in this neighbourhood, as a benefactor to it. But to proceed; although Evington-court was not originally erected by the family of Gay, yet it was much improved by them with additional buildings, and in allusion to their name, both the wainscot and windows of it were adorned with nosegays. At length after the Gays, who bore for their arms, Gules, three lions rampant, argent, an orle of cross-croslets, fitchee, or. (fn. 2) had continued owners of this mansion till the beginning of the reign of king Henry VII. Humphry Gay, esq. alienated it to John Honywood, esq. of Sene, in Newington, near Hythe, and afterwards of St. Gregory's, Canterbury, where he died in 1557, and was buried in that cathedral.

BOTTSHAM, antiently and more properly written Bodesham, is a manor in the western part of this parish. About the year 687 Swabert, king of Kent, gave among others, three plough-lands in a place called Bodesham, to Eabba, abbess of Minister, in Thanet, and in the reign of king Edward the Consessor, one Ælgeric Bigg gave another part of it to the abbey of St. Augustine, by the description of the lands called Bodesham, on condition that Wade, his knight, should possess them during his life. (fn. 7) The former of these continued in the monastery till the reign of king Canute, when it was plundered and burnt by the Danes. After which the church and lands of the monastery of Minster, and those of Bodesham among them, were granted to St. Augustine's monastery, and remained, together with those given as above-mentioned by Ælgeric Bigg, part of the possessions of it at the taking of the survey of Domesday, in which record it is thus described:

In Limowart left, in Stotinges hundred, Gaufrid holds Bodesham of the abbot. It was taxed at one suling. The arable land is two carucates, and there are, with eight borderers, wood for the pannage of fifteen hogs. In the time of king Edward the Confessor it was worth four pounds, and afterwards twenty shillings, now four pounds, A certain villein held it.

Hugh, abbot of St. Augustine, and his chapter, in the year 1110, granted to Hamo, steward of the king's houshold, this land of Bodesham, upon condition that he should, if there should be occasion, advise and assist him and his successors in any pleas brought against him by any baron, either in the county or in the king's court.

Hamo above-mentioned, whose surname was Crevequer, had come over into this kingdom with the Conqueror, and was rewarded afterwards with much land in this county, and was made sheriff of it during his life, from whence he was frequently stiled Hamo Vicecomes, or the sheriff. He lived till the middle of king Henry I.'s reign; and in his descendants it most probably remained till it came into the possession of the family of Gay, or Le Gay as they were sometimes written, owners of the yoke of Evington likewise, in which it continued till it was at length sold with it, in the beginning of Henry VII.'s reign, to Honywood, as has been fully mentioned before; in whose descendants it still remains, being now the property of Sir John Honywood, bart. of Evington.

In the church:
The south chancel, dedicated to St. John, belongs to Evington, in which there are several monuments, and numbers of gravestones, the pavement being covered with them, for the Honywood family, some of which have inscriptions and figures on brasses remaining on them. Underneath this chancel is a large vault, in which the remains of the family lie deposited. On the north side of this chancel is a tomb, having had the figures on it of a man between his two wives: and at each corner a shield of arms in brass for Gay. On the capital of a pillar at the east end of this tomb is this legend, in old English letters, in gold, which have been lately repaired: Pray for the sowlys of Xtopher Gay, Agnes and Johan his wifes, ther chylder and all Xtian sowlys, on whose sowlys Jhu have mcy; by which it should seem that he was the founder, or at least the repairer of this chancel. Underneath is carved a shield of arms of Gay.



Footnote 2: 2. In the Visitation of the county of Kent, anno 1574, is a pedigree of Gay.

CLOOKE OR CLOKE, Anne (I5646)
 
1106 Daniel died unmarried. During life he was employed in his own business of decorating and paper hanging. Causes of death, as listed on his death certificate, are muscular rheumatism and retrocedent gout. JEMMETT, Daniel Walter (I8012)
 
1107 Daniel Walter was the last child born to Thomas Milsted and Ann (nee Gregory). Throughout his life, just as his brothers, uncles and cousins, he worked in the marine trade. He married Mary Ann Palmer on December 25, 1875 and over the course of the following ten years had seven children. Daniel's second son, Thomas, and second daughter, Alice Maud, did not survive beyond their infancy: Alice Maud died at under 1 month old and Thomas at 11 months of age.

As of 1881 the family was living on St. John's Road and had with them Mary Ann's sister, Rosa Jane Webb. By 1891 the family complete were living at 18 Cambridge Road. With them were Mary Ann's brother, Teddy and her father, James Webb. It is a mystery why Mary Ann's relatives were always recorded as Webb on the census returns, as her name and her father's surname on the marriage certificate were clearly written as Palmer.

Percival Walter, Daniel's oldest son, married during the early 1900s and had at least one child - Harold Percival in 1908.
