Hi Debra! Reckon you must be some sort of angel (or masochist!!) but am certainly glad of your offer to help do 'look ups'. I desperately need to know who my Grandfather Benjamin Raby's father was. Benjamin was born in 1900 in Preston Lancashire and that's also where he died in 1974. He was married to Lillian (nee Jones). I know his father also lived in Preston, but not sure where he was born. I have a feeling it may well have also been Preston. Much obliged to you. Helene Connell (nee Raby) xx

Hi Debra, Thanks very much for your time and effort but I am sure this is not the William I am looking for. I think his wife Ann would have still been alive and he would have had a son Henry aged 10. There were several families of Leivers born in Selston around that time. I think I have him on the 1881 census living in Heage, Derbyshire. Just himself and step daughter Elizabeth Adlington, although there are errors in their ages. Don't worry if you can't find it, the 1861 census showing the family was not found on Ancestry. Kind Regards Kathleen

I was hoping that ones with Charles as a son would narrow it down for William, but I know Charles got married in Northamptonshire and I can't see any in that area in 1841. Someone sent me info on James Gardner, so we can disregard that one. I found a death ref for William in 1880, and he was 73 when he died, so that would make birth c1803. He died in Towcester, so couldn't have moved around that much. How about chasing him back from 1871? Would that work? I wanted to know Charle's mother's details so I can follow on.
