Hello Mike, Thankyou very much for all that information that you have just printed out for me. Are you going to the record offices in Leics in the near future? if so would it be possible for you to see who Williams parents were that married Mary Lord, even to see what parish he was from, would it give these details for a marriage of this time. It was St Margeret's sorry I gave you St Mary's.(marriage was 7th May 1804. Regards Sue

Hi all, hope you don't mind me butting in here. I'm not from Leicestershire but my Mum is. Although she was born in Chesterfield she grew up in Coalville/Whitwick. Her parents are both Leicestershire too. Reading your posts made me laugh as they reminded me of how my Grandma used to talk. Sadly she passed away in 1998, so thanks for the reminder, it really made me smile. I don't suppose any of you are anywhere near to either London Road Cemetery or Broomleys Cemetery in Coalville? I ask because my Grt Grandparents John William Burton and Edith Agnes Burton are both buried in the latter whilst my Grt Grt Grandparents William Burton and his wife (Mary?) are buried in the former. This side of the family is taking way more effort than the Scots let me tell you. Chances of me getting down there from Scotland are remote for the moment lol. Anyone help possibly? Lou

Hi Lou and thank you. I really would love to have the details from the headstones for the people mentioned above if there are any and if possible a photo of each. The photo isn't essential though. I've been told by my mother and a cousin which cemeteries they were all in, just haven't ever seen them. If it helps at all... JohnWilliam Burton died 1955 and his wife Edith in 1953, I don't have the exact dates though. I have no info on William and his wife at all regarding their deaths. So kind of you to offer, thanx.

Lou in Mountsorrel Donington-le-heath is only about a mile and a half from London Rd and a couple of miles from Broom Leys. If it helps at all I'd be willing to visit one of them. What do you think? Feel free to say no thanks! Jan

Parish changes in 1892. Sorry but it looks like both parents of William Ringrose’s ( 1804.and 1801.) Were not around. . .So we might not get to the bottom of it. . Or these details might help you make up your mind as to which one it was. MIKE.

Hello Mike, My grateful thanks for doing this for me, it must of took you ages...me duck lol Did they not put ages down in those days,when they got married? I agree with you the top one is the one that I want. If you happen to go again to the record office, for yourself could you just check the birth of William Ringrose ab 1770 to 1780 parents were William Ringrose and Elizabeth Hurst I have it down as Knighton 1780 but then that is only from IGI on family search and they are not gospel like I say on his headstone it says died aged 40 in 1830. Many thanks again Mike...............
