Trying to find details of the children of:
Thomas Mann c1812 Leicester, married Elizabeth Lount
12 OCT 1829 Saint Mary, Leicester.
Mann parents William and Mary.
Lount parents Henry and Mary.

So far found:
Henry Mann c1828 Leicester & Elizabeth c1837.

I am sure theare there will be other children between 1818 & say 1847ish.

Can anyone please help me to find them? Perhaps in the 1851 census?

Thank you

Hi

Many thanks for your help.

How did you find him in the infirmary????

Ps - can you confirm - was it Thomas or Henry in the infirmary????? Believe that you mean Thomas, which means his wife Elizabeth nee Lount would have died between 1841-1851??

Sorry - visitors

I did mean Thomas rather than Henry - visitors arrived as I was rechecking. Thomas was listed with others in the Infirmary in 1851 on Ancestry - I didn't include the other patients as there were quite a number

Sadly it looks as though Elizabeth died between 1841 and 1851 and I found the following possiblity for her death in 1847


Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page

Deaths Mar 1847 (>99%)

Many thanks for your help.

At least we now know that any children they had would have been born between:
1828 - 18.47

.....Wonder what Thomas was in the infirmary for??
