Hi Elaine
Im not Certain but i think Julias Mothers name was Elizabeth nee Whitwell who married John Cook 1839 St Margarets Leicester let me know if you get the same
Best wishes Bev

Hello, I wonder if you have access to the Parish Records for Thurmaston. I am searching for the birth of John Welborn (Welbourne or Welbourn or anything similar) He was born in 1789, the census forms say that it was in Thurgarton, Notts. I have searched these parish records.but can find no trace of him or any siblings. His marriage was in Nottingham, which I have found on the parish records, his children were born in Nottingham.
On the Census their surname changes to Whelband,
which is the name I am studying. As the name Whelband is quite common in Leicestershire, I wondered whether it was written down wrongly.
My other option is to check Norfolk, as there is a Thurgarton there. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Judith.

Hi Bev

Hi again,

Could anybody have a look at Loughborough burials and baptisms for me please?
I am looking for any children of Henry Maples Kitchen and Selina (unknown maiden name, as can not find a marriage) between about 1892 – 1915?

I already have the baptism of my gt grandmother, Agnes Marion Kitchen on 07/09/1898, but I want to know if she had any brother’s or sister’s that maybe died.

Also can anbody have a look for the burials of:

Henry Maples Kitchen born 1872
Selina Kitchen born abt 1864 (according to 1901 census so may be wrong)

Thanks for any help given,

Vicky X

Hi Elaine,

Thank you so much!

Alfred James Joseph Pearce is definitely the one as he lives at the address that my gt grandmother was born in.

If you could look for others that would be great.

Also, would you be able to see if there are any more Pearce family members buried at Welford Road whose address was either Bardolph Street or Stanley Street?

Thanks again,

Vicky X

Hi Vicky

Here are the only 2 Alfreds

PEARCE Alfred 1919 MAR 18 4MTHS 33 Colledge Street Leicester cM 340 F c58331
PEARCE Alfred James Joseph 1897 OCT 11 1 Bardolph Street Leicester uQ 1011 C u82011

If one seems a match, let me know and I can look for others in the grave
Elaine

Hi Elaine,

Is there by any chance a Alfred Pearce on the disk who died as a child?

I have been told my gt grandmother had a little brother called Alfie who died quite young, but so far I haven’t found him.

Thanks for your help,

Vicky

Hi Vicky

Should have mentioned that there isn't another Joseph on the disc, hope it helps
Elaine

Thanks so much Elaine! They are definitely them!

Vicky X

Hi Vicky

Think these 2 could be yours

PEARCE Joseph Robert 1937 FEB 15 72 79 Stanley Street Leicester uQ 1721 F u124319

PEARCE Minnie 1925 FEB 2 60 79 Stanley Street Leicester
uQ 1721 F u114284

They are both in the same grave, the last burial in that plot was in 1872, 6 people are in the grave. Other surnames are

1721 C BISHOP --- 1867
1721 C BARNES Stephen 1867
1721 C BARNES Ann 1868
1721 C SMITH William 1872

Elaine

Hi,

Could anybody have a look for me for members of the Pearce family buried in Welford Road between1895 - 1945?

I have a few names:

Minnie Pearce born 1865
Joseph Pearce born 1865
Joseph Pearce born around 1895

Also children of the Minnie and Joseph Pearce who were born after 1890 and died before about 1920.

Thanks for any help given,
