Adding my thanks to Mike who has also helped me in the past :) Still looking for Thomas Ward - he's still elduding me!

I am looking for the parents of George Adams who is thought to have been born in Mountsorrel in 1857. George married Alice Osborne in 1880 when he was 23 years old. There is not a father's name on the marriage certificate. I have census records of George and Alice and children but nothing about him before his marriage. I would be grateful for any help to enable me to research further back with the Adams family. There is a connection with the Baum family but I have yet to find it. It has also been suggested he may have been born a Dilkes and adopted. There was another George Adams born in Leicester around the same time but not the one I am looking for. Thank you, Gill

Hi Elaine I have got his place of birth off of the 1871 census. I also found it on some of the other census'. He married a lady named Elizabeth Winfield in Nottingham on 1 March 1848. I got this info from their marriage certificate. The certificate said his father was also called George. I know they had the following children: George Charles Emma John Sarah. I do not have a baptism record for him???

Hi Gemma Do you have his Baptism? just wondered what info you have to give his birthplace, it might help us find more. The only George I found 1841 name parents as Richard and Charlotte, this George is registered in the IGI but born Sheepy Magna, Leicester Elaine

Hi I am looking for George Whitehead born in Loughborough in 1824. I am TOTALLY stuck!!!!

thanks mike so i have to assume that its the john i have unless i find anything else to say its not sarah

Ah yes Mike, so if we follow your hypothesis, like Tasmania , we are all the result of generations of inbreeding? Or like Moe Victoria where DNA evidence is useless to Police investigations as everyone has the same DNA! Oh well - persevere my son, and dont get bushed or brushed as the case may be! Regards the Hon M J W, GG, MT MT

I doubt if the BAPTISM entry in the Parish Registers ( Birth Certificates do not come in till 1837. ) Will give you that sort of information To link the Father John to his birth place…. The register will read along these lines :~ BAPTISMS ANN’O DOM’INI :~ 1788. Thomas Son of John & Elizabeth Clark…….Baptised ……11th May. No other details will be given …. Not enough to prove out right that it's the same John. Sorry……. MIKE.

thanks for looking mike think what i need to do is go ro and lookup thomas clarke b 1788 and see if his birth cert gives me any clues maybe john was b belgrave and when he married elizabeth he moved to narborough because she was born there thanks again sarah

**** F.A.O. **** Sarah. Baptisms :~ John CLARK. 28th. December. 1758. Belgrave. Father :~ William. Mother :~ Marey. ( this is not a typo mistake on my behalf ) Thomas CLARK. 11th May 1788. Narborough. Father :~ Jno. CLARK. Mother :~ Elizabeth. I’m afraid it’s going to be very difficult to prove this is the same John Baptised in Belgrave with out detailed documentations of the family events Which was not in operation in these early years……… MIKE.

' You Rang M’ Lord ….? ' I’ve had the serfs working all day on this for you But they are having a problem De-ciphering the hieroglyphs on the tablets. But basically. ……… I think we’re on a sticky wicket here….. If God created Man ( Adam Son of God. ) Then Woman ( Eve Daughter of God. ) So… any off spring of this union……..would this be legal. ? Hence I fear we fall at the 1st fence...... “ These are deep waters M’ Lord. …….“ Besides I do not believe God had a broken down Codger ? was this the ' Harrison' ... of ' Brush Fame ' the ones that do not go bald ? we're tracting down I remain our “ Humble Servant.” MIKE. Exits right backwards. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

MIke - thank you so much for that! Welll yes - there are a few more little things -- would you mind tracing the entire Harrison family back to Adam & Eve for me? - only if you have the time , and it's not too much trouble - lol Regards Michael (but for an accident of birth- the 10th Earl of Ashburnham!_)

Sorry…….. No John Clark(e) Marriages to an Elizabeth ? ?. In Narborough 1556 ~ 1836. Nor any Baptisms with Parents John & Elizabeth. The only one showing is :~ John Clarke ~ Elizabeth HOOK. 28th. March. 1815. Blaby Parish. MIKE.

*** F.A.O. *** Michael O' Oz . Greeting's....... M' Lord. Yes thats right ...... That there was in deed TWO Families of the Harrison surname living in Thurmaston SOUTH Area. 1814. Shame the ages are not given. Very basic Head count / Censuses have been around .( ever 10 years ) since Tuesday 10th March 1801 But very few have survived. Was there anything else M' Lord ? ....lol. :0)))) Your humble servant ....MIKE. * Walks backwards out of thread..... bowing '

hi all soory not got back to you before mike iv been on my hols hun thanks for the information iv just seen it thanks sarah

Hi Mike Just a clarification on that 1814 head count (I have never come across this type of record before) - Does that mean there were 2 seperate William Harrison families living in Thurmaston at that time?
