Hi Mike and Elaine,
Sorry for taking so long to reply....I had a little snooze.....

This my version of a 'film'

The film one can order from the LDS family histroy centre can be photographs of the original document ( Parish records, transcripts)that have been put on tha reel of film and are viewed thru a monitor type machine. these films can be census, parish records ,wills. If you go to the LDS web site, and on the search page there a 'LIBRARY' heading ,click on that, there are some more headings on the right, try PLace Search and go from there.
These films are where the members obatain most of their info, but not all all info is pulled from the film and recorded. And sometimes what is pulled is not transcribed on to the IGI correctly, as we all know . Here in Aust its one of the only ways we can get the info.

As noted in my last contact, the film I have is the wrong one, All Saints , I have now ordered one for the St Margarets areas... I just cannt find any NOON 's that match up with William Noon and Elizabeth Goodman m 1802 ( which you found for me Mike.)
I have found a number of children from the IGI and have traced them from the census on Ancestry web site, but would you beleive Thomas b 1814 (which is my line and my starting point ,and you found his birth for me,) is not on IGI, so there could be other children as well. When looking at the census, most of Williams children were in the 'boot making 'trade, ( which Thomas was) which ties in..

Once again tks for the help. and I hope my explanation was not too confusing.

Cheers
Karen

Thanks Karen

Did you have any luck contacting Stevan?

Elaine

Hello everyone,

I wondered if any of you kind people could help me find the death of my G Grandfather.
His name was Albert Tyers and he was born in 1856 in Laughton, Leics.
In 1878 he married Sarah J Lemon and they had two children, Fanny born 1879 and George in 1881 both in Leicester.
In 1881 the family can be found living 46 Sherrard Street under Tyer.
In 1891 i can find no trace of Albert although Sarah is living in Fox Lane with son George and a lodger named Henry Beswick and his 2 year old daughter Clara. Sarah is listed as the head of the household and classed as married not a widow.
It seems to me that Clara is probley her daughter but what has happened to Albert ?
I can find no death for him at all.
Sarah died in 1898 ( 38 years old )
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Hello Sue

Have had a look and couldn't find a lead but then decided to have a look for Henry Beswick. If you have a look 1901, Clara is there with a George Tyers aged 20. I couldn't find a George Tyers to fit so thought this was interesting!

Clara Beswick 11
Henry Beswick 40
George Tigert 20 (???must be Tyers really)


Living in Junior Street, All Saints, Leicester
All born in Leicester
RG13; Piece: 2986; Folio: 122; Page: 32

What do you think?

I have a George Lemmon as a witness at one of my families marriages!

Elaine

Hi Elaine,
Thanks.
Just had a look at the original and you are right, it's definatly George Tyers.
Your George Lemon is interesting, Sarah's father was called George, according to the census born in Liverpool around 1821 and he's another one who's baptism record dose'nt want to be found.
Sarah's daughter Fanny was living with him on the 1891 and 1901.

Hi All

I am researching a branch of the TIMSON family (my mothers family). I have traced them back to Higham on the Hill c1714, thru Burbage c1764and onto Leicester around 1830 to date. Among the families related by marriage are MARCH,GOODE, YATES, SATCHELL, FOXEN and SMITH.
Anyone with similar interests are welcolm to visit my www.tribalpages.com site where I have many photos(some of people as yet unknown), certs, and notes. You will find it listed under Ken from Hunua or ken1066. If you find a connection and can assist me to advance the tree I would be very greatful!!
Thank you
Ken

Hi Elaine

Many thanks

Hello Mike
Tis me again.

Please can you help me with my Hall family in Belton. I am having trouble finding the death of Mary Hall who married Charles Hall in Belton on 17/6//1816.

I have found her in the 1861 census living at 60 Long Street in Belton with her daughter Mary and grandson Arthur. In the 1871 census she is at 22 Long Street living alone.

I have found a possible death registration for her in 1877 Q1 7a 89 in Loughborough but the age is not quite right (she was born 1796). Please could you check the parish records for me to see if this could be right or if there are any other entries that could be possibilities. Thank you.

Hope you are well

Thanks to your sterling work at the weekend I now have some more information about my great great grandmother Ann Bodycote (1849-1929) and her antecedents - and lots more work to do!

Someone has also found Ann and her family on the 1861 Census in Ilkeston in Derbyshire, miswritten as Bardicott, which at least may give us a clue to the pronunciation. Her father turns out to be quite interesting as he was born in Bengal, India in 1821 and his mother in Madras about 1803. Add to that the fact that two of her uncles were born in St Lucia and we have a well travelled family - not bad for an FWK!

Do you have the disks for St Leonard’s parish registers? I am looking to check the baptism entries for Joseph Bodycote 23rd April 1799 and Edward Bodicote 24th December 1765.

The other one I need to check is St Margaret’s 21st October 1788 - the marriage of Edward Bodicote and Elizabeth Noon.

All the best

Sheila

Hi Sheila

Thank you so much Mike.

As usual you have done it again!! I didn't see that one at all!

I will get the death cert and see who the informant is. I know one of her daughters, Hannah who married Frederick Perry, lived in Whitwick and I think the other daughter Mary may also live there. Not sure who she married I think it could be Joseph Hopkinson. Have to be patient and wait for the cert!!

Thank you again

Greeting’s again. ….. Frazzled….

Looks like it could have been a double Wedding then ?

Dec. Qrt. 1861.

You wish me to check it out next week for you
At the Records Office to see what was happening
And report back on this thread ?

MIKE. xx

Hello Mike

That would be wonderful if you could check the marriage details for me.

In the 1861 census Mary is living with mother Mary and Arthur Hall b1859. I have presumed (which I know is dangerous, never presume anything unless proved) that Arthur is Mary's illegitimate son. He is listed as Mary Sr's Grandson.

In the 1871 census Arthur is 12 and a farm servant so no longer with his mother.

If you have time could you please see if Arthur is listed as being baseborn. According to the census details he was born in Belton in 1859 but I am having trouble finding his birth registration. The only one I can find in the area is in 1858 in Loughborough for a William Arthur Hall.

Thank you again for all your help.

Hi Mike,

Have you been off on holiday?

I managed to pay a flying visit to the Records Office in Wigston when I was in England briefly last week, and found a will that throws up more questions than it solves (for John Pool, butcher of Barlestone, who died in 1803).

Could you check out the following marriage for me, found on the IGI, if you have time?

Hannah Poole married John Sutton at Barlestone on 3rd February 1791.

If it was by licence, I should be very interested in the details of the bond.

This Hannah was the daughter of the John Pool who left the will; I think he must be the same John Pool who married Rebecca Fowkes in Earl Shilton in 1775 (you found the marriage for me a while ago), but I'm looking for confirmation, because I can't find all the children named in the will on the IGI or on the censuses.

Thanks a lot,
Mary

Greeting’s Mary O’ Italy…….

Holiday ? …lol not had one of those since 1995…..

Lets just say for the moment I’ve not been in the best of health………

I’ll have a look at the Parish records for you next week at the records Office.
Hopefully they will not have started their “ Work to rule by then “
BUT…. They will be with drawling their labour though on Wednesday & Thursday 17.& 18.th.July…….

MIKE. xx
