Connections?
The strange second name of
Henry Inget, presumably given to preserve a family name, is probably
a corruption of Ingate. Practically all Ingates lived in East Anglia
at the time, where there is just one with the spelling as Inget.
This was Thomas Inget, who
married Ellen or Eleanor Hunter, daughter of William Hunter, in Wrentham, Suffolk, in 1774. In this same
village a William John Boon was baptised in 1775.
On 26 April 1783 Hellen
Ingate was born to Thomas Ingate and Hellen Hunter, daughter of
William Hunter, in Plumstead,
Kent. On 27 November 1785 Eleanor Ingate was born to Thomas and
Eleanor Ingate in East Wickham, Kent. The Suffolk Hunters frequently
used the forenames Ellen, Helen and Eleanor, and William Boon gave
his firstborn the name Eleanor.
There is also this
marriage in the parish register of Wrentham:
8 Dec 1772 John Bune single
otp married Mary Hunter single otp. Witnesses Ellen Hunter &
Lydia Vinyard.
On 3 November 1786 Thomas
Ingate Boon was born in Woolwich, Kent, and was baptised in St
Mary Magdalene, Woolwich 31 December 1786. His parents were John
and Mary Boon.
