Please would somebody be able to look for any Christophers at this office? Still trying to find an Edward Christopher b1836. Father meant to be a John Christopher, but no records. William and Mary a possibility. An Alamlod listed on 1851 census is incorrect I think, need to find out if this Alamlod existed, never come across the name before and no record of them thereafter, could this be Edward?? The writing on it is so faint? Would really appreciate any offers? Thank you.

I saw that 1851 transcription, and thought it could be Edward.
Couldn't find anything else - looked on familysearch.org too

Emily White was born in Loughborough in 1863. She wound up living with her grandparents (Seth and Elizabeth Needham) in Loughborough but I want to know who her parents were. Is there a way of checking for me please?

Many thanks as I have reached a blank.

Is this off Chris' family tree? I have all this info but nothing stated before the marriage can be proven, we cant find anything?? He's put on later Census records that he was born in Leics and we've worked back his approx YOB but no trace of him being born or living with his family or his father a John Christopher? Everything after he goes to the army is okay, its just the start of his life? If anybody could help that would be great. Thank you
