Laslett family history

Thomas and Ann Laslett of Stourmouth

Thomas was baptised at Ash on 25 February 1731 O.S. He was the son of Thomas Laslett of Stourmouth and Mary Laslett née Stacey his wife (page 26).

He married Ann Smith a spinster of Monkton who was aged 22 on 2 June 1753 at Ash. The marriage licence shows him as Thomas Lacy of Stourmouth, husbandman, bachelor, aged 21.

We do not know much of Thomas and Ann except that a 19th century family record when writing of their children states 'of their parents, who were natives of East Kent, very little is known to the writer except that they both died while the children were young'.

Thomas was buried at Stourmouth on 19 March 1768 as Thomas Lacey. On checking the Bishops Transcripts one records the name as Thomas Laslet.
