Name |
Sarah Hougham |
Born |
Bef 21 Mar 1743 |
Bromley, Kent, England |
- Her marriage registration includes "Sarah Hougham of Cath[edral] sp[inster] (26)". If "26" means her age, then she was born in the year prior to 12 Jan 1748.
There is also a record of a baptism in 1743 of a Sarah daughter of Solomon and Lydia. So either she did not give her actual age when she married, or an earlier birth to Solomon and Lydia was named Sarah and died as an infant.

Notes |
- One reference indicated that she was perhaps known as Mary and had 16 children. But her daughter-in-law is Mary, also a Hougham, and she had at least 14 children. Both women had married name Royes. If it is correct that John Royes died when Solomon was a child, and since Sarah is known as Royes in her brother's 1818 will (that is, not re-married), it is unlikely that she had more than about 3 children. It is therefore almost certain that the reference is to her daughter-in-law.
- There seem to be two candidates for this Sarah Hougham
1. born 1743
2. born 1747
It is possible that there were two born to Solomon Hougham and Lydia Hunt, the first having presumambly died before 1747.

 | 1662 HOUGHAM Charles This chart shows the dual links from Charles Hougham to John and Solomon Royes |
 | 1700 ROYES The earliest known Royes - John We had previously identified John Royes 1752-1832 as our earliest Royes. We then identified his father as William Royes - no information about birth or marriage.
We have information that a William Royes was born in 1723 in Lincolnshire. But John 1752 was born in, worked, married and died in Canterbury, Kent. So this link is uncertain though not impossible. Lincolnshire William's wife is Sarah Taylor and his parents were John and Mary Royes. |

Sarah Royce, Parish of Canterbury Christ Church Cathedral, age 88, abode St Alphage
This is almost certainly Sarah Hougham who married John Royes. Royes is sometimes recorded as Royce by clerks so it is not certain that Sarah spelt her name as Royes or Royce. The marriage record has Royes.
