Leonard Wilkinson is my grandfather and was born 05.05.1898, Castle Donington. I have no infomation on my great grandfather William Wilkinson and wonder if anyone knows who Leonards father is, I have got 2 birth certificates but have no idea which William he is! Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you Vicky

What is William's occupation on Leonard's marriage cert?

What is the occupation of each William on the birth certs?

Hi Jill

On Leonards birth certificate William is a general labourer and on the two birth certificates I obtained for William one is a milkman [1849] and the other a framework knitter. [1851.] I don't even know if the date of around 1850 is correct.

Thanks for any help.

Regards
Vicky
