Hi Elaine I owe people on this site big time for the help they have given with my Leicester connections, so if I can help with Coventry I'd be pleased to do so. One of my lines went in the opposite direction - perhaps they passed on the road! Sheila

Hi Sheila Thanks for that, my gggrandfather marries again and in 1901 is in Godiva Street, Coventry. Have info before this date but nothing further on, can't for the life of me guess why they would be there after being in Leicester for so many years but the daughter he has with his second wife is listed as gdau 1891 so who knows. Would be grateful of any help if you let me know if you are researching in that area! BEV Had forgotten about the Hinks stuff on the thread, one day we will find a common rellie I'm sure Elaine
