Mike/Bev Just wondered what you thought and if you could have a look for me. Have looked for Ann's Ward death and can't see anything that is a match St. George’s Parish Church WARD ANN 21 FEB 1841 AGED.48 Was hoping you could double check BMD's as well and hopefully prove me wrong. Elaine

Greeting’s Again Sarah…….. I’m sorry to hear about one of your children……… I’m sure they will be in all our prayers..... ' For a speedy & successful recovery…. ' I appreciate how difficult it is for you to understand all the information sent via this message board All I can advise you is to read it slowly……… It’s difficult to pick up the vibes as you would when speaking face to face. Yes I would only be too pleased to help you sometime in the Records office in Wigston. GOD Bless. … MIKE. P.S. I'm getting some information back from my colleague re Woodville.... Pickering's But not enough to post yet ....again it takes time to gather all the information especially if you have to see original Parish registers

I'm a O.A.P. so I can only go to the records office ONCE a week So the search continues next time then and there is 38 Parishes within the Blaby District So could take a time...... I have looked at Oadby & Great Glenn ( although Glen comes under Billesdon ) so far.... Yes Oadby was in Blaby District early on but came under Leicester latter on. MIKE.

Greeting’s Again Sarah ….. Your quote :- Added by Sarah Wragg on 16/01/2007 12:01:20 hi mike re harriett smith baptism 30/6/1883 ' Unquote.' Is this a typing error 1883.? Otherwise how can you have her on 1861. & 71. Censuses ? My quote :- Re your Harriett Smith I'm afraid Harriett goes to ground after the 1851. Census. ' Unquote ' By this I meant I could not find her on the 1841. Census. ….Sorry. But that Benjamin Smith on the 1851. census looks a good bet for Harriott's parents ? especially when I have found on the I.G.I. batch No's CHRISTENING'S Allis Smith. 31st. June. 1831. Queniborough. Father :- Benjamin Smith. Mother :- Mary. HARRIOT Smith. 30th. June. 1833. Queniborough. Father :- Benjamin Smith. Mother :- Mary. MIKE.
