Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 2,077 Send Message	I can't find my password! Could somebody kindly see of there is anything about the Bensted family of Maidstone prior to 1790? They were quarriers and hoymen (barge operators) on the Medway and my particular interest is Mary Bensted c1735 and her father William. I already have plenty from other sources, so it's only the Tmes Digital Archive i'd like to explore. Many thanks.

	Sorry Paul, nothing showing on Times Digital Archive for William or Mary Bensted.
