Gillian????? Is this of any use to you?

Thanks Keith

Have been away, so only just picked up your replies on my thread.

Thank you so much for all your hard work.

I originally started out looking to fnd the relatationship of Emma Kilby to the Agars.

I think we have 'come close' to finding it as :
1971 you found a Mary Orton and I know that the Ortons married into the Kilbys.

And in 1876 you found this marriage:
Agar Edward Henry Leicester 7a 584
Orton Mary Jane Leicester 7a 584
So there is definately a connection - but not sure exactly what it is yet.

The census 1881 that you found - this family are in my tree, so we are on the right track..
Arthur C. Kilby
Elizabeth A. Kilby 23
Hetty K. Kilby 1
John I. Kilby 23 Professor of Music, born Leicestershire


Not sure where to go next as I still havent fround the eaxct connection between Emma Kilby & the Agars

Thank you so much for your help ...really do appreciate it.
Kind regards
Gill

Hi Keith

Emma Kilbys parents were:
John Kilby & Elizabeth Orton and in 1881 they lived at 19 Shenton St, Leicester

And in 1876 you found this marriage:
Agar Edward Henry Leicester 7a 584
Orton Mary Jane Leicester 7a 584

What I dont yet know is, who Mary Jane Orton is in relation to Elizabeth Orton ????

Any thoughts??
Gill

Hi Keith

Have just found out that in 1871 - the Agars
( Agar /Orton ) also lived in Shenton Street- No 27!

I would like to think that Elizabeth nee Orton (No 19)
and Mary nee Orton (No27) were sisters
(or cousins) - but as yet still cant find the actual connection - need to find details of Marys birth, to see who her parents were?????

Regards
Gill
