Parish History

LOOSE (All Saints), a parish, in the union and hundred of Maidstone, lathe of Aylesford, W division of the county of Kent, 2½ miles S from Maidstone. ^[1]

Loose (pronounced looze) is a village and civil parish 2 miles south of the county town of Maidstone and the church of All Saints lies close to the river Loose. See Loose Kent Wikipedia

All Saints was originally a chapelry of Maidstone All Saints, Kent which was later enlarged to form an Ecclesiastical parish in the Diocese of Canterbury. The church is on the site of a former Saxon church and the oldest part of the building dates from the 14th century and church warden's accounts from 1364.

The church was restored and additions made in subsequent centuries; in 1819 and 1860 North and South Aisles were added. In 1878 serious fire damage lead to major restoration.

The Parish church of All Saints, Church Street, Loose has been designated as a grade II* listed building British listed building

See Edward Hasted, The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent: Volume 4 (1798), pp. 359-365 at British History Online and Kent Churches website

The Reverend Richard Boys was vicar here and is buried in the churchyard. He was chaplain to St Helena during the exile of Napoleon Bonaparte. The church also has memorials to the Fairfax family who held the Leeds Castle estates. One former vicar of the parish assumed the arms and name of Fairfax and the estates.

+=== Poor Law Unions  ===
-The 1911 census of England and Wales was taken on the night of Sunday 2 April 1911 and in addition to households and institutions such as prisons and workhouses, canal boats merchant ships and naval vessels it attempted to include homeless persons. The schedule was completed by an individual and for the first time both this record and the enumerator's schedule were preserved. <br>Two forms of boycott of the census by women are possible due to frustration at government failure to grant women the universal right to vote in parliamentary and local elections. The schedule either records a protest by failure to complete the form in respect of the women in the household or women are absent due to organisation of groups of women staying away from home for the whole night. Research estimates that several thousand women are not found by census search.<br>[http://www.findmypast.co.uk/search/census/1911/person?ukwid=394505&sourceid=1&utm_source=Google+FMP+Main_CPC&utm_medium=Key+Keywords&utm_campaign=1911+census+ Find my Past 1911 census search]<br>
