Hello Dawn
I now have access to my Kent records.
The good news is that there is a specific link to Peterborough - the bad news is that there's not much.
Here is the specific link:
Lubin Kent (3/8/1819[Somersby Lincs]
- 2/18/1907[Peterborough ON})
m.Sarah Hamilton Neilson (b c 1820[Scotland]
- 1/24/1931[Toronto ON])
They had one child that I know of - there could have been more (for example a George would have been possible) - or Herbert could have had a son George in the late 1800's,
Herbert John Kent (8/3/1862 - 3/15/1919)
Lubin was one of a number of children who immigrated with their parents from Lincolnshire to Canada. One settled in London, ON, one in Lachine QC, several in Kingston ON and one in Campbellford ON (my line - I believe)
Does this ring any bells for your family? For example Sarah Kent lived long enough that there could have been contact with your family. If so, I have more on the Kents (not Lubin) that I could send you
Hope this helps
John
