A labourer, John Spain, the 3 times great-grandfather of Nigel Horne, was born in Kent, England c. 17811 and was married twice, to Anne Sutton (on 30 Jun 1817 in Stourmouth, Kent) and Susanna Newport (in 1806 also in Stourmouth)3. He had 11 children: Sarah, Jane, Susannah, Eliza, James, Ann, Henry, William, Charles, Stephen and Sarah. In 1841, he was living in Stourmouth, Kent1.

He died c. 1850 in Stourmouth, Kent2 (according to LDS there were two burials in 1850 in Stourmouth for men called John Spain. One on 6th Feb one on 5th Dec, it is likely one of them is this John Spain since Stourmouth is a small village.).
