My maternal grandmother's mother's maiden name was Kesterton. Without digging out all the old family records, my gt gt grandfather was listed on my grandmother's birth-certificate as 'ironfounder' of Aston. Unfortunately I can't recall his christian name. I think I've got these facts right, but when I get the chance I'll check - I have b-c's and marriage lines going back to the 18th century. Whether they are actual relations of 'your' Kestertons I can't say, obviously, but I think there must be a very good chance.
Wendy,
May I ask would you be able to locate a wedding date for William & Sarah, hoping it is in the same area.
Somewhere along the line I also have a son William for them but unsure now if he is born to them.
I have 1845 for him are you able to confirm or squash this one for me.
Derek, I have been unable to find a marriage for William and Sarah. I also had no luck with William. It is difficult without exact dates as I have to search through several C.D.s
