Prior Park. MIKE. xx

Thanks Mike, those are the lookups I want - Jane Sickess was listed at various times as Lickiss/Lickess/Lickliss as well (such fun!) I have a list of the other children, but John moved to Birmingham according to the 1841 census and I've concentrated on him. You DON'T DRINK????? Are you ill or something :>) lol. I'll have to buy you a cream cake - now, if you don't eat cream cakes I'll know there's something seriously wrong!!!! Look forward to hearing from you Cynthia

Greetings again Mike Can you please help with the birth parents for Joseph TOMKINS b c1836 father was possibly Thomas, mothers details would be most helpful. (this Joseph not to be confused with Joseph b1838). St Margarets parish almost certain. Many thanks Jon O'Kent

Hi Mikes just pointed out there are 2 threads who are we looking for in Leicester part Eleven. Ive sent a message to ask if they will remove it or else we will get mixed up. so will you please keep using this thread or else as Mike said he will need a bigger bottle of Prozac Best wishes Bev

Mike, that's wonderful! Thank you so much for all your help, I shall set aside an hour soon to go through it all, I can't imagine how long it took you to look it all up, but you've saved me a helluva journey to Leicestershire. Hmmm...maybe I will go anyway and have a look at Castle Donnington and Ashby! Sterling work mate! I owe you a cream cake, don't forget !! If ever I can help in Worcester or Birmingham libraries/History centres, let me know. Cindi

Mike Once again many thanks - looks interesting -, was giving me a major headache Regards Jon O'Kent

Greeting's Again Cinda..... ' Your very Welcome ....' Not too sure of your hourly rate though ? One hours work = 1 Cream Cake. ...Ummm ? Is this BELOW the minimum hourly Rate I ask myself ? .....:0(((( MIKE. xx

An HOUR?! Crikey - I'll see if Mr. Kipling's factory's up for sale! OR...I could offer my hand in marriage - my hand's the only decent part in working order you see. The brain went ages ago!!!! Thanks again. Cindi

Hello Mike Have deciphered most of the marriage licence you sent me, wondered if you could help with a few missing words? Have not sent it yet and would rather you let me know if you had time to take a look Thanks Elaine

Greeting's Again Elaine ..... Always here to help out... so just ask away .. I still have my copy of document George Isaac Ward MIKE.

Greeting’s Again Cindi …. Ashby De la Zouch is the better Historical place of interest. M 5 > M42.> A 42. Come off at Junction A42 / A611. Come back on yourself entering the Town of Ashby on the B587.( Nottingham Road which changes into Wood Street) follow signs for Tourist Information Centre. Central Car Park next to Hood Park Leisure Centre on Elford Road. Easy walking distance to Town Centre ( Through jetty ) & Ashby Castle. Make sure you visit the Indoor Market on Wood Street ( But take your Bank Manager with you…. it can be pricey ) If you go onto Castle Donnington take the B587 (NOT the… A42 ) then look out for village of Breedon -on–the-Hill. Oh......A pair of Ear plugs.... Castle Donnington is at the end of the Runway of East Midlands Airport. AVOID junctions 23, 23a.24 of the M1 ….it’s a NIGHTMARE !!!!!! MIKE. xx

Mike on it's way as we speak Elaine

Greeting's Again .....Elaine Your amended doc winging it's way to you as I type MIKE. xxx P.S. just had another look at this passage and think it reads :- *and requireth a Licence for * ,,,,
