John Datson
We have traced out Dadson line back to John Datson who we believe was born in East Malling in Kent towards the end of the 1600s. He appears to have had 6 children in Yalding and later generations continued living there through to the early 1800s.
Sophia Dadson
John Datson's great great great granddaughter was my great grandmother Sophia Dadson (1836-1903). She married our William French (journeyman miller, railway porter, railway clerk, traveller in corn & flour trade, miller & corn dealer) in 1864.
