I have connections with Bedo's of Kent. John Bedo married Ann and had following issue: Jane born c 1787 Chilham Kent; Hester born c. 1789 born Sellinge Kent; John born c 1791 Selling; Ann born c 1793 Selling; Catherine born c 1794 Sellinge; Mary born c 1797 Sellinge; Benjamin b 1799 Sellinge; Elizabeth born 1805.

Any of these ring any bells? Jane (Johns widow) ran the turpike or toll gate at Sellinge which was taken over by her widowed daughter Mary Daws.
