“A Family Business
The Boorman Family
Barham Pratt Boorman, great-grandfather of the present chairman, was the youngest member of a family who ran a general store in Tenterden. He was interested in newspapers and in 1884 had launched the Kent Examiner and Ashford Chronicle.
By then the Maidstone Telegraph had become the Kent Messenger and Maidstone Telegraph and had editions in Dartford and Sevenoaks as well as Maidstone. The papers were printed on a steam driven press in Station Road, Maidstone.
But in 1890 the owners were flung into jail after a series of costly libel actions. They appealed to Mr Boorman for help. He raised funds to get them out of jail and then bought the Kent Messenger from the cash-strapped brothers.
Over the next 40 years, "BP" spearheaded radical technological change and company expansion. Linotype machines were installed and revolutionised compositing by automatically setting type that had been done by hand. New editions were published and offices opened.
Mr Boorman died in 1928 after 40 years at the helm. His son Henry Roy Pratt Boorman, grandfather of the present chairman, took over.”
On 18 Aug 1891 when Barham Pratt was 31, he married Elizabeth “Bessie” ROGERS in Zion Chapel, Tenterden, Kent, England. Born on 18 Nov 1861 in Tenterden, Kent, England. Elizabeth “Bessie” died in Maidstone, Kent, England, on 28 May 1932; she was 70.

- 1911: She had a niece named Bessie Mary Rogers, born KIngsdown, Kent, age 22, who was living with them in Maidstone in 1911 census.

RESEARCH NOTES
- Her husband’s grandmother was a Rebecca Rogers (d/o John and Rebecca Rogers) who married a Samuel Booman, so could she be related to her husband?
They had the following children:
1326i.
1327ii.
1328iii.
634. Kate Woodfull “Katie” BOORMAN (Henry7, Samuel6, Thomas5, Thomas4, William3, Thomas2, William1). Born on 8 Jun 1862 in Tenterden, Kent, England.

RESEARCH NOTES
- Two sources list a daughter Olive Edmonds, but I can’t find a birth registration for Olive after 1915 with a Boorman mother, and Kate was 53 when she married John in 1915. If there was a child, she would likely be adopted or from a previous marriage of one or the other of them. There are lots of births for Olive Edmonds before 1915 (no mothers surname recorded). John Edmonds is too common a name to research with certainty.
In Q4 1915 when Kate Woodfull “Katie” was 53, she married Rev John EDMONDS in Tenterden Reg Dist, Kent, England. Born ca 1860. John died in 1940; he was 80.

RESEARCH NOTES
- too many of choices for birth and death registrations for this common name.
They had one child:
1329i.
635. Annie Rebecca BOORMAN (Henry7, Samuel6, Thomas5, Thomas4, William3, Thomas2, William1). Born on 11 Sep 1863 in Tenterden, Kent, England. Annie Rebecca died in Lambeth Reg Dist, Surrey, England, on 23 Aug 1936; she was 72. Buried abt 1936 in Cranbrook Rd, Tenterden, Kent, England.

RESEARCH NOTES
If he was 83 when he died in 1953, he would have been born abt 1870. Only 2 births registered for George Forde: 1856 and 1876.
BUT
There are a ton of options under the name Ford. I think this one is a match:
