We know the family that arrived in Australia and while we don't yet have the baptisms of all the children we can rule out Mary daughter of Francis WATERS as the mother.
The son Charles baptised 1795 TW son of Francis & Mary unknown could well be the Charles who married in Speldhurst the Mary WATERS b. 1801.
That would mean we have no baptism in Brede and no marriage for my Charles.

No, I said earlier the baptisms had the maternal grandparents listed.
One such baptism here for son Owen - also my line:
Non-Conformist RG4/2967
No. 118 - Owen the Son of Charles Furner of Ashdown Forest in the Parish of Maresfield in the County of Sussex and of Mary, his wife, who was the daughter of James and Mary Waters, was born on the Seventeenth day of October, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and twenty-eight, And was solemnly baptised with water, in the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, on the Nineteenth day of December in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and twenty-eight by me [signed] Jno. Geden.

I didn't have any of those NC baptisms either when I started 7 years ago so all I had was some inaccurate trees with Charles born in 1796 in Kent and a marriage in Speldhurst. Later on I found both parents buried in 1795 St George Brede.
Now I have a baptism in Kent for a Charles and a Francis with parents Francis & Mary the more I think the Kent family is not connected.

The children's baptisms have Charles: 21st Feb 1822, a bricklayer, 10th Sep 1826, a bricklayer.. 2 children baptised on 9th Feb 1837, a bricklayer.

No Robert son of Francis & Elizabeth.
The image I have has him 19 on 20 Oct 1837 from Rye, a farm servant, both parents deceased.
I have removed the Speldhurst marriage from my tree.
So now the brick wall is a baptism for Charles and a marriage for his parents.
The death of his older sister Mary.

I'm now convinced the baptism for Charles in 1795 with parents Francis & Mary is not my Charles with an error for his mother's name.
So that leaves the brick wall for another look next year.
