Benjamin Watten Sackett
| Father | Henry Sackett (1774-1862) |
| Mother | Elizabeth Sackett (1778-1861) |
Benjamin Watten Sackett, pilot and gentleman of Ramsgate, Kent, son of Henry Sackett and Elizabeth Sackett, was born in St Peter in Thanet, KentG, on 18 March 18051 and baptized at St Peter in ThanetG on 21 April 1805.1 He died at 63 Addington Street, RamsgateG, on 4 October 1881.2,3 He married first at St Peter in ThanetG on 27 February 1833, Lydia Hurst, daughter of Andrew Hurst and Elizabeth Hurst.4 Lydia was born about 17917 and died aged 80 in Shoreditch, MiddlesexG, on 28 January 1871.8,9 He married second in Dover, KentG, in 1871, Ann Dixon.5,6 She was born on 3 April 181410 and died aged 66 in ThanetG on 22 July 1880.10,11
Benjamin's first wife Lydia was admitted to the Bethlem Hospital, Southwark, LondonG, on 2 December 1836 suffering from a mental illness. She had previously been admitted to the hospital in 1822, before her marriage. She was discharged "well" in November 1837, but was re-admitted a year later in November 1838. There followed several further admissions. She was placed on the Incurable List in 1842.
She moved by 1849 to Rotherhithe where she lived with a sister, perhaps to be closer to the hospital. She moved to lodgings in Southwark in 1851. She was an in-patient at the hospital for much of this time.
Lydia was discharged from Bethlem Hospital in 1852, "her husband having made terms for her being taken care of in another asylum."
Records from the Bethlem Hospital (which had notoriously become known as "Bedlam" in consequence of its poor conditions) show that, in this period, and in regard to Lydia's treatment, patients were treated with compassion and professionalism, at least by the standards of knowledge of the day.12
In 1841 Lydia was living at Addington, Ramsgate, KentG, and was recorded in the census as Lydia Sackett, of independent means, aged 50 and born in Kent. It is assumed that Benjamin was at sea at the date of the census.13
In 1851 Benjamin was living at Hawkesbury Street, Dover, KentG, and was recorded in the census as Benjamin W Sackett, a pilot, head of household, married, aged 45, and born at St. Peter's. Living with him were Ann Dixon, 35, an unmarried servant, and Elizabeth Dixon, a widowed visitor aged 77, presumably Ann's mother.14,15
In 1861 he was living at Hawkesbury Street, Dover, KentG, and was recorded as Benjamin W Sackett, a Trinity pilot, head of household, married, aged 55, and born in Ramsgate. Living with him was Ann Dixon, a 46-year-old unmarried servant.16
In 1871 he was living at 9 Hawkesbury Street, Dover, KentG, and was recorded as Benjamin W Sackett, a pilot, head of household, a widower, aged 65, and born in Ramsgate. Also in the household were Ann Dixon, housekeeper, unmarried, aged 57, and born at Eastry, Kent, and his visiting niece Jane Moore, a widow, aged 45.17
Benjamin was appointed administrator of the estate of his wife Lydia by letters of administration granted in the Principal Probate Registry, London, on 13 February 1871. Lydia's estate was valued at less than £300.9
Benjamin was appointed administrator of the estate of his brother Richard Henry Sackett by letters of administration granted at the Probate Registry, CanterburyG, on 2 September 1879.18
In 1881 Benjamin was living at 63 Addington Street, Ramsgate, KentG, and was recorded in the census as Benjamin W Sackett, retired pilot, head of household, a widower, aged 76, and born at St Peter's, Isle of Thanet. Also in the household was Jane Moore, housekeeper, a widow.19
Benjamin's will, made in RamsgateG on 4 February 1879, was proved at Canterbury on 5 December 1881. Named as beneficiaries were his wife Ann, his brothers Richard, David and James, his sister Phoebe, and his nephew John Hogbin. The value of the personal estate was some £6,700. Benjamin had no children. Benjamin's wife, who was to have been the main beneficiary of the will, predeceased Benjamin, as also did his brother Richard. Codicils to the will re-divided the estate, with Benjamin's sister Phoebe becoming the main beneficiary.20

Richard Henry Sackett
| Father | Henry Sackett (1774-1862) |
| Mother | Elizabeth Sackett (1778-1861) |
Richard Henry Sackett, baker and confectioner of Margate, Kent, son of Henry Sackett and Elizabeth Sackett, was born in St Peter in Thanet, KentG, on 3 September 18071 and baptized at St Peter in ThanetG on 4 October 1807.1 He died aged 71 in MargateG on 12 August 18792,3 and was buried at Zion Chapel, MargateG, on 15 August 1879.5 He married at St George, RamsgateG, on 23 November 1830, Elizabeth Dadd, widow.4 Elizabeth was born in Elham, KentG, about 1806.6 She was probably the Elizabeth Sackett who died aged 69 in Maidstone, KentG, in 1875.7
Richard's wife Elizabeth was admitted to the Bethlem Hospital, Southwark, LondonG, on 15 June 1832 suffering from peritonitis and post-natal depression. She had attempted suicide by taking arsenic—in a grim echo of the death of her mother who had committed suicide by hanging when deranged after her husband had been run over and killed by a wagon. Elizabeth remained in the hospital for six months until discharged on 25 December when she was declared "well".
Elizabeth was again admitted to the hospital some twelve years later on 30 August 1844. Her daughter Emma had died aged eleven of tuberculosis a year earlier. Elizabeth suffered delirium at the time of the death, and had since become delusional and suicidal. Severe headaches were treated with "leeches, blisters, and purgations". After a five-month stay, she was declared "well" and discharged on 24 January 1845.
The respite was brief, and Elizabeth was re-admitted less than two months later on 13 March, staying in hospital for nearly fifteen months until discharged on 5 June 1846, this time with the less optimistic declaration of "uncured".
Described as "affectionate" and "liberal" and "always of a good disposition" before becoming ill, she was now "constantly talking and hollering, tearing her hair out, destroying her clothes, wringing her hands," and was suicidal, "talking of hanging".
Whether Elizabeth's condition subsequently improved is not known, but she is recorded living at home with her husband Richard over the next twenty-five years.
Records from the Bethlem Hospital (which had notoriously become known as "Bedlam" in consequence of its poor conditions) show that, in this period, and in regard to Elizabeth's treatment, patients were treated with compassion and professionalism, at least by the standards of knowledge of the day.8
In 1841 Richard was living at King Street, St John, Margate, KentG, and was recorded in the census as Richard Sackett, a baker, aged 30 [ages rounded down to nearest five years] and born in Kent. Living with him was his wife Elizabeth, aged 35, and their daughter Emma, aged nine. Also in the household were a male servant, a female servant, and a baker's apprentice.9
In 1851 Richard was living at 21 King Street, Margate, KentG, and was recorded in the census as Richard Henry Sackett, a baker employing one man, head of household, married, aged 43, and born in St Peter's. Living with him were his wife Elizabeth, aged 45 and born in Elham, and an 18-year-old male servant.10
In 1861 he was living at 21 King Street, Margate, KentG, and was recorded as Richard Sackett, a baker employing one man, head of household, married, aged 52, and born in St Peter's. Living with him was his wife Elizabeth, aged 55 and born in Elham.11
In 1871 he was living at 75 King Street, Margate, KentG, and was recorded as Richard H Sackett, a baker, head of household, married, aged 63, and born in St Peter's. Living with him were his wife Elizabeth, aged 65 and born in Elham, and a 17-year-old female servant.12
Richard died intestate. Letters of administration of his estate were granted at the Probate Registry, CanterburyG, on 2 September 1879 to his brother Benjamin Watten Sackett. Richard's estate was valued at less than £100.3
Richard was named as a beneficiary in his brother Benjamin's will made in RamsgateG on 5 December 1881.13
Richard's wife Elizabeth was admitted to the Bethlem Hospital, Southwark, LondonG, on 15 June 1832 suffering from peritonitis and post-natal depression.
