John Henwood Acquitted, Charles Henwood Convicted

On the 5th of January of 1852, John Henwood was on trial in the Castle of Winchester in Southhampton., Hampshire, England  .  He was accused of stealing 7 lbs of flour.  Then he was aquitted. 

On the 18th of October 1852 Charles Henwood , in Southhampton, Winchester in Hampshire was accused of larceny before and was now convicted of a felony.  This time he was sentenced to 9 months.

Interestingly, Munday is the name of a wife of Charles, and a William Munday was also up on larceny before and now was convicted of a felony.  He was sentenced for 7 years. 

1852 must have been a bad year for people in England.

John Henwood, Servant

John Henwood was a servant to John Horwood.  I wonder if there was any connection here.  The wife (I hope) was Jane Cherye.  He was a servant as of August 25, 1628. 

He also came up in the world by being servant to Sir Richard Kingsmell .  Both these positions were in Hampshire.

It's interesting that a servant to Richard Kingsmell took place in Virginia  in the 1600's and that the servant was another John. 

John Henwood Marriage of 1560 and 1629 in Hampshire, England

John Henwood married Mary Martin on April 23, 1629 in Kingsclere, Hampshire, England.  This was found on ancestry.com marriages of England and Wales.  I just hope I've picked the right John. 

I found John Henwood marrying Joane Langsard on May 27, 1633 but in St. Mary, Battersea, Surrey, England.  Surrey is next door to Hampshire, so it's possible it's even the same man. 

Then I found John Hynwod who married Margaret Myllet on September 22, 1560 in Kingsclere, Hampshire, England.
