Mary Ann Setterfield 1858 - 1929

Mary Ann Setterfield was one of my maternal great great grandmothers.  Her birth certificate states that she was born on 20th April 1858 in Minster, in Thanet, Kent.  Her parents were George Setterfield and Ann Goodburn.  Mary's father was an agricultural labourer.

The first census which Mary appears on is that for 1861.  On the census she was 3 years old and was living with her parents and one sibling.  The family were living in Prospect Road in Minster.

On the 1861 census Mary had one sister, called Harriet.  Mary's siblings were:

Harriet 1860 - 1922
George Henry 1862 - 1862
Stephen John 1863 - 1864

Sadly Mary's parents, George and Ann, both died when they were in their 30s so there were no other children.

On the 1871 census Mary was living with her maternal Aunt and Uncle, Stephen and Sophia Goodburn, as both of her parents had died by this time.  Mary was 13 years old and she was a domestic servant.

Mary and her Aunt and Uncle were living in Cop Street in Ash, near Sandwich in Kent.

I have not yet found an 1881 census with Mary Ann Setterfield (with various spellings) or found her living with any of her close relations.  She may still have been in domestic service somewhere.

The next official document for Mary Ann Setterfield is her marriage to John William Crump Horn in 1886.  The couple married at the parish church of Holy Trinity in Margate, Kent.

The census documents for 1891, 1901 and 1911 have appeared on the blog information for Mary Ann's husband John William.

Mary Ann died in the last quarter of 1929.  She was 71 years old when she died.
