Greeting's Again Debbie....... It's only the Library of the Leicester & Rutland Family History Society which will close 23/12/04. The Leicestershire & Rutland Records Office is still open :- Long Street, Wigston Magna, LEICESTER LE18 2 AH. Tel: 0116 257 1080. Flax: 0116 257 1120. That's where the Parish Records(Fiches) are kept if you wish to trawl through them...... ( Tuesday can be very busy ) Reader ticket lasts 3 years and is free You just need some ID with you. MIKE.

Hi Mike, No need to apologise! I wasn't suggesting that it was you who had made the mistake.lol More likely to have been the enumerator! I did know about the age thing in 1841, but am rather lacking on any info to actually verify yet. I was planning to try to get to Leicester fairly soon, but having read your post about the RO closing, that won't be an option yet. I have the newly married William, wife Sarah and baby son Samuel (my gr-gr-grandfather) in 1851 in Arnold, Notts. This is the only 'sighting' of William! They have not been found in Notts in1861, have had help from someone with the Derbyshire census for 1861 and they do not appear there, either. There was a son born in Belper, Derbys, in 1864, so did consider they might have been there in 1861. In 1871 Sarah is listed as married, but a boarder in the house of a man she later claims to be her husband. So not sure if William was still alive then or not. When Sarah died in 1893, she was desribed as the wife of William Noon - not the widow of - also suggesting that he may still have been alive - though they had not lived together since at least 1871. The only death for William I have found so far that looks like a possible is in 1889 in Basford aged 60. This doesn't quite match the very limited info for William that I have. Stuck between the rock and the hard place at the moment!! Debbie

Greeting's Again Debbie..... I apologise...... I've rechecked those 1841. Scanned images again and it was 15 shown on the image for William. So I most have hit the wrong number key. I've now amended it. ...Sorry Did you know the ages on the 1841. Census was messed around....... they went to the nearest 5 That is why ages shown are in multiples of 5. It's not until latter Census you get a truer picture of their ages.... Any details found via the Internet or Disks really need to be verified by Parish Records where possible. And the only way to prove the details are correct is to trawl through the Parish Records. ( Records Office ) But then due to the early date you are only likely to get something like the following :- William Son of ........... ( Hopefully both parents names but usually only the one is given.)And date or just year of Baptism. MIKE.

Hi Mike, What a helpful, friendly thread is proving to be!! Thank you so much for taking the trouble to check the 1841 census for me, and PR's Having reached the dreaded 'pre1837' era, I cannot prove that the William Noon bapt 1827 is my William, but it looks the most likely. Regarding the John & Ann family with Harley & William - there is an error there somewhere I think. That William should be 17/18yrs old. The baptism for him is on the IGI as 12 Oct 1823. When 'my' William married, in 1848, he was in Arnold, Notts, so perhaps the family had already moved to Nottingham in 1841. If I have the right family the last child was born in 1836 in Shepshed, so they could have moved between 1836 & 1841. Will have to see if I can 'scrounge' an 1841 look-up for Notts! Many thanks again Debbie

Hi Mike, And thank you! I have William Noon & Mary Orringe, entered as William's parent's - but with BIG question marks against them! lol Just happened to be the only likely candidates on the IGI!! Just off to work, but need to have a Google for Leics FHS, see what's on offer! Saw your thread about Leicester RO closing, that's worrying. Have they no new building sorted out? Debbe

Greeting's & Welcome Debbie....... To help you on your way I've found this Marriage :- WILLIAM NOON ~ MARY ORRINGE. Shepshed 1822. By Banns.... MIKE.

Hello All, Just found my way into Leicestershire from Notts via my gr-gr-gr-grandfather. William NOON bap 18 Oct 1827 in Shepshed. Parents William NOON & Mary? (I think!) This whole family have been a complete nightmare! Most of them didn't marry or have their children baptised or register their births!! Any Notts/Leics NOON's out there? Debbie

***** IMPORTANT NOTICE ***** The Leicester & Rutland Family History Society Library in Free School lane Leicester. Will CLOSE PERMANENTLY Thurday 23rd. December 2004. at 9.00 pm. and will reopen at a new venue yet to be found. This is due to the redevelopment of the Shires Shopping Centre....... MIKE.

Hi mike thank you for look up why cant they make things easy im going off the 1881 census and a marriage between William Wright and fanny plowright 1866 I know the 1881 was right . Bev

Greeting’s Again Bev…….. Are you basing your information from this 1881. Census Return ? :- Dwelling: 18 Grafton St Census Place: Northampton Priory St Andrew, Northampton, England Source: FHL Film 1341373 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 1549 Folio 85 Page 3 Marr Age Sex Birthplace William WRIGHT M 34 M Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Head Occ: Beer Tapper (Inn Serv) Fanny WRIGHT M 32 F Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Wife Frank WRIGHT 11 M Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Son Occ: Scholar Nelly WRIGHT 7 F Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Daughter Occ: Scholar Henry WRIGHT W 60 F Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Father Occ: Rivetter (Shoe) Harry WRIGHT 21 M Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Brother Occ: Warehouseman Rose WRIGHT 12 F Northampton, Northampton, England Rel: Sister Occ: Scholar. ************************************** Now I’ve looked up 1871. Scanned Census Images.. . . Using Frank’s Details you give and it threw up this one :- RG 10 1483 / 90 Page 28. Parish of St, Sepulchre Northampton. William Wright. Head. 24. Shoe Maker. Born Northampton. Annie. Wife. 23. Born Wisbech Cambridgeshire. FRANK. Son. 1. Born Northampton. So was William married before to an “Annie” ? And looking on 1881 Census it states “ Frank Son “ So you would think his Mother was Fanny but was it Annie ? So to solve this one you’ll have to get your check book out again ? …lol Think this is the one you want :- July Qrt. 1869. Northampton. Cert No. 3 b. 61. MIKE.

Thank you again Mike. I am going to send for my maternal great aunt's birth certificate to see if it gives his occupation (after looking to see if I can get the full number). You have done enough for me, I will leave you in peace. Paul
