Seasonal Greeting's Elaine....... Using the resources to hand ... I Can CONFIRM that marriage John Sutton. ~ Elizabeth Moore. 5th. Nov. 1827 Nailstone. By Banns. But no mention of Parents names..:0(((( There is another Marriage in Bagworth ( Which is 3.1 Miles from Nailstone ) Elizabeth Moore. ~ Joseph Reily. 8th. Oct. 1827. Bagworth. By Banns. But again No mention of Parents ...:o(((( This could be the other Elizabeth Moore ? Do you want me to cast my eyes over these Marriages when I'm at Wigston Records Office sometime next week ? and just hope one of the Parents was a witt's..... Did you see that one of Cherry's relatives was a Boatman just wonder if they knew your Thomas & Hannah ? and where the flipping heck they were in 1851. ?...lol :0))))

Hi Mike I wondered if you could look another marriage up for me, have an Elizabeth Moore marrying John Sutton 5 November 1827 Nailstone via some info I received. Can you give me anything to go on as I need to know her father's name if poss. I have another Elizabeth Moore in the family too and both of these girls are born in 1809, so trying to work out which married who what when etc Father names that might come up are George and Samuel. Thank you as ever Elaine

Just moving this up Cherry in case you missed the reply Elaine

Greeting’s & Welcome Cherry… Please don’t feel bad about a slight slip up…… Just like Elaine has said we all have our moments …..lol :0))) Here is the transcript of that 1851. Census HO 107 / 2090 / 729 / Page. 12. Leicester. St. Mary’s Parish. Red Cross Street. REDCROSS ST THOMAS READ HEAD M 30 M ENGINE DRIVER LEI LUTTERWORTH REDCROSS ST CAROLINE READ WIFE M 27 F LEI SMGT REDCROSS ST JOHN THOMAS READ SON 8 M SCHOLAR LEI SMRY REDCROSS ST PATIENCE READ DAU 1 F LEI SMRY SMRY = St. Mary De Castro Parish. SMGT. = St. Margaret's Parish. Here is what looks very much like John & Caroline’s Marriage…? St. Margaret’s Parish Church :- Entry No.162, AUG 1, 1841, after Banns THOS. READ, full age, Bach. ENGINEER, of WOODBOY St, s. of JOHN READ, CARPENTER. CAROLINE BREEDON, minor, Sp. of BRITANNIA St, d. of JOSEPH BREEDON, BOATMAN Wits: WM. BREEDON, ELIZTH. BANN? I’ve had a look at Woodboy Street on the 1841 Census Images but they were not there….:0((( Better results on the Breedon side of the Family though……. 1841. Census Images HO 107 / 604 / 13 / Page. 23. St. Margaret’s Parish. Britannia Street. Joseph Breedon.70. Boatman. N. Mary. Wife. 60. Y. CAROLINE. Dau. 15. Y. George. Son. 15.Y. N. = Not Born within the County. Y. = Yes Born within the County. Don’t forget that on this Census The ages of those over 15 Were rounded DOWN To the nearest multiple of 5 e.g. 17.. = 15. Page 16. Britannia Street. William Breedon. 30. Boatman. Y Sarah. Wife. 25. Y. I think this is the William that was a Witness to Thomas & Caroline Marriage ? MIKE……

Hi Cherry Do you need anymore help with him? I'm always learning and still make silly mistakes!!! If you need any help in Leicester, there are plenty of kind people here and the tips board is always worth checking, good luck Elaine

Hi Elaine I've been stupid enough not to refer to the 1881 Census a rellie sent me! He's described as John T Reed in that one, birthplace Leicester aged 40. Thank you very much for your time and patience, I'm oh so new to all of this and long for the day when I can be as adept as folks like you, if ever! Cherry

Hi Cherry Have found 1 John Thomas Read 1851 but c 1843 mother Caroline, she is born St Margarets and he is down as St Mary's, nothing for a Thomas Read or Reed exactly 1841 Does anything sound right and I will check later census returns Elaine

Hi Mike, I'm looking for Thomas Read(Reed) born 1841 Leicestershire - St Margarets. Most grateful for any help Cherry

Are you sure ? You realize it's the other side of the tracks to you know where ...lol.

Mike thank you very much, one to keep for my records ho ho ho Elaine
