Have you got any certs yet ie. Ada,s marriage cert. Ada,s birth cert..? Getting both will give you fathers name & birth cert will give you Elizabeth,s maiden name. Have you found any census details yet? All these will give you a start. Good Hunting Shirley

Hi Wendy,, Have you the name of Ada Leggetts father??then there maybe a slim chance a marriage could be found. of him and Elizabeth?? Kay.

From where have you got that info? do you know that her mother wasn't Elizabeth Leggett?

Here is Ada,s marriage Gro ref. Ada Leggatt to Charles Thorpe Dodds:- Dec 1897 Horncastle 7a 1189. Getting this will give you her age on marriage & give you a window to search for her birth. Hopefully it will also show her dads name will can give you search data for a marriage of her parents. her birth cert will confirm her parents names Shirley

Wendy Just done a search on 1837 and there are four Robert Leggett marriages between Dec 1860 and Dec 1864. they are as follows. Leggett Robert Sep 1863 St Luke 1B 949 Leggett Robert Sep 1863 Whitechapel 1C 801 Leggett Robert-Aufiere Jun 1863 Wokingham 2C 633 Leggett Robert Dec 1862 Thelford 4B 1097 As the first three are in the south of England I don't think they are the one's. But the fourth I don't know where Thelford is, so this may be a possibility. You will have to send for the certificate to find out if he married and Elizabeth or a Betsy. Victor

This looks to be Ada's birth - Horncastle covers Scrivelsby. If you buy this, it should give you her mother's maiden name. You need ought to buy some certificates. Births Dec 1872 Leggett Ada Horncastle 7a 531
