Jenny, try searching all members trees, top right under Search. If anyone lists the same Solleys as you, send them a message so that you can collaborate.

By the way- there are two places in Kent named Ash. Which are yours from?

Parish records for Ash-cum-Ridley (now technically in Sevenoaks) can be found on Medwaycity Ark.
https://cityark.medway.gov.uk
Most have been transcribed on https://www.freereg.org.uk/search_queries/new , a great finding tool.

The other one is near Dover/Sandwich
