Abv:~ SMRY = St. Mary’s Parish. Re checked Welford Road Again but could not get a match up using the birth years Re :~ Mary Ann MASON Born c 1844. I don’t think the Mary Ann’s death in Sept. 1909. Is the right one The G.R.O. Index Site tells me Mary Ann was aged 54. on death Which would make her year of birth 1855. Un less my maths is up the creak……..that’s 10 years out. ? G.R.O.

hi mike can you let me have info on mary and selina in 1891 i have the info on john in 1891 thanks sj

Hi Gemma Have come to the conclusion he's with George 1861 !!! Was hoping that would make you smile, well there are 38 William Fawkes and not one born in Nottingham. I guess it will be a case of looking at variations of the name and a quick look at freebmd for Nottingham only has one marraige in Nottingham for a William Fawkes 1900 ( I put a search in from 1871). Sorry I couldn't help anymore at the moment Elaine

***F.A.O. Sarah *** Looks like there could well be a split in the marriage or John has gone in search of work ? 1891. Census returns Mary is with Selina in Bradgate Street Leicester. John is Lodging in Loddington Northamptonshire So it might prove difficult to tract his death down. MIKE.

Hi Guys As well as my George Whitehead, I am also trying to trace relatives on the other side of my family from Leicestershire. I am looking for the parents / sibling of John Fox (b. 1812) in Thurmaston, Leicestershire. He married a lady named Ann Toon and had the following children: William Emma Eliza Any help would be most welcome. Many thanks Gemma.

Hi Elaine Yes that is the correct entry. The William Fawkes entry I found on the 1861 census is just a guess, I could not find him anywhere else on that census and thought that could possibly be him??? Let me know what you think? Thanks Gemma.

how come things fall into peoples laps and some of us have a real hard time finding info iv been looking for a death for ages and i still cant find it im giving up on the whole tree now nuts to it sj
