My Interest in the Week(e)s Family
My interest in the Weeks family begins
with George Weeks
(1834-?) who married
Isabella Boorman
(1839-1902) in 1857. She was the daughter of Thomas Boorman (1810-1881) and
Charlotte Bourne (1813-1893), who were my 3x Great Grandparents. I
descend from Isabella's brother, Frederick Edward Boorman (1846-1884).
George Weeks was born in 1834
Wadhurst and was the son of
William Weeks
(1804-?) and his first wife
Ann Piper
(1805-1841). Another of William and Ann's children was Ellen Weeks
(1840-1865) who married George Kemp in 1859, and they were the Great
Grandparents of Tom Kemp.
William Weeks
(1804-?) was the son of
John Weeks
(1776-?) and Philadelphia Akehurst. John and Philly were
also the parents of
Samuel Weeks (1813-?) who married Barbara Wells (1817-1856) in
1834 and they were the ancestors of Sarah Jerrari. George
Weeks (1816-?) was another son and he married Matilda Weston in
1835 and they were the 2x Great Grandparents of Rona
Benson.
John Weeks
(1776-?) was the son of
Thomas Weeks
and Mary (c1736-1821) and so far that's where the trail ends. Thomas and
Mary were also the parents of
Andrew Weeks
(1780-?) who married
Elizabeth Bones
(1777-1856) in 1801 and they were the 4x Great Grandparents of Terry
Duplock.

Rachel Weeks married Edmund Smith in 1835 Burwash. He was
the grandson of my 5x Great Grandparents James Boorman (1740-1821)
and Mary Jones (1742-1820). Rachel was born in 1816 Dallington,
Sussex and was the daughter of Thomas Weeks and Ann Bones who
married 1806 in Ticehurst. As yet I do not know if Thomas was in
someway related to the above Weeks familes. Nor do I know if Ann
Bones was related to Elizabeth Bones, wife of Andrew Weeks
(mentioned above). Edmund's brother Reuben Smith, married
Mary Weeks in 1841. Mary was born about 1821 in Dallington, but I
have yet to find out if she was a sister to Rachel.
