hi mike following a phone call to my uncle about the pickering can you look for sarah pickering b either around 1867 - or 1874- 76 as my uncle said there was a daughter to willoughby pickering b1844 blackfordby and her mum was elizabeth pickering b 1844 woodville shes not on 1891 census with them according to my uncle think she looked after the family even tho she was only their daughter but my uncle remembers her thanks sarah

PS Mike Have all George seniors details and his wife, I was contacted about my Wards which led to finding the 2 other children. George is the last of my fishmongers from Newark Hope all is well with you and here's to 2007 Elaine

Greeting’s Again……. Bacardi I doubt very much that Ellen was buried within the grounds of The Enderby Work House ….1907 I don’t think they had consecrated ground……. This building was pulled down in 1930. And a New Old folks Home built on the site straight a way. They would not be allowed to do this until the Leese's ran out More likely Ellen was buried at St. John Parish Church within the village of Enderby. If you wish I will have a look at the Parish Burial registers next time at the Records Office…… Failing that I’ll have a word with the Lay Preacher for St. John’s Who is a good friend of mine. ………. MIKE. P.S. I've just had a look at Enderby early burials although no Rodds there.... There are lots of burials with the notes :- ' Abode Union Work House Enderby ' Which seems to bear out my early thoughts. .....

thanks again mike your a star THANKYOU sarah

hi looking for buriel place of my rodds family have death cert for ellen rodds died 1907 in enderby,in the union work house.she was a spinster but had 1 illigit son edwin rodds who totally dissapeared after 1881 its sad that ellen was in the work house,as on most censuses she is living with family ie son,mother or sisters any help in finding her resting place would be great bacardi xxx

Greeting’s Again Elaine & Happy New Year to you……. I’m not sure if I will be able to go to the Records Office tomorrow. I need to take the Church Decorations down before 12th.night. I had earmarked tomorrow to do this……. But in the meantime. …… I’ve checked out via my disk on the details you have posted. I’ve listed those interned within the same plot ( U.F.12 ) below in YEAR order S = Single Internment ( 1st. use of plot.) F. = Family Plot. . Ward Burials Welford Road Cemetery. Names./ dates. / Ages. / Last known address./ Parish. George Isaac 3 Dec 1865 48 Slawson Street Saint George U F 12 S 16463 George Isaac 15 Mar 1871 3mths Royal East Street Saint Margaret U F 12 F 25792 Eliza Ann 25 May 1875 8 Napier Street Saint Mary U F 12 F 34211 Amina Leonora 2 Apr 1879 6mths Raglan Street Saint Mary U F 12 F 42088 So the children MUST be Grand children. Immaculate conception comes to mind if not. ..Ummm !! ..8-/ The details at the Records Office would be as above but with the addition of the officiating Minster. NO Parents names given. I think you need to get the Death Cert.’s to determine the Parents of the children.:- George Isaac 0. Jan Feb Mar, Qrt. 1771.Leicester. Cert No. 7a. 146. Eliza Ann. 8. Apr.May.Jun Qrt. 1875.
