This page contains some notes on a family whose origins we are researching. Some families we know more about than others, but we hope that by publishing this summary here we can make contact and exchange data with people who can help to complete the picture.
The Iddenden family lived in Kent, near Ashford. We are interested in the following generations of people who bore this surname:
Edward and Mary Iddenden (no details known)
Mary Iddenden (baptised 1753)
William Iddenden (1775 - 1856) and Ann Jones (c1778 - 1856)
Jemima Iddenden (1814 - 1888) and William Anderson (1815 - 1896)
Our known Iddenden ancestors lived in Wye, near Ashford. William Iddenden was the illegitimate son of Mary Iddenden, who later married Thomas Reader, but we know little else about the earlier generations. We have traced several of Jemima Iddenden's brothers in various parts of Kent. We have also researched the Anderson family.
