Facts and Events
John Hornet was baptised on 22nd February 1767 at Welwyn in Hertfordshire, son of Mary Hornet, formerly Mailes, and her husband George Hornet, a labourer. John was married on 1st November 1791, aged 24, to a Mary Wingrove. They married at Kimpton, about four miles west of Welwyn. They had five children altogether between 1792 and 1806 - the eldest two baptised at Kimpton and the younger three baptised at neighbouring Wheathampstead. John died in 1806, being buried on 16th September 1806 at Kimpton. He was 39. Mary was left with five children ranging in age from about 14 down to just five months old. John's burial records that he had lived at Gustard Wood, a hamlet which straddles the boundary between Wheathampstead and Kimpton parishes. Mary outlived John by over 40 years - she appears in the 1841 census living at Great Cutts in Wheathampstead with some of John's sister's children. John's parents also both survived him. References
