Hi Joyce, trying to find out parentage of John Spencer b 1792 (farmer) AdlZouch and brother Thomas 1796 (innkeeper Blue Bell Inn and butcher - most of his sons went into butchery/tanning at Callis/Calais).
Two possibilities Thomas Spencer and Frances Walker or John Spencer and Mary. I've had conflicting info from family sources and need confirmation as to which are parents.
Many thanks,
Jacquie x

Hi Joyce If possible, could you check a death for me? Timothy Hill buried 1852 at St Helens, Ashby de la Zouch aged 77. Any information that you could see on the parish records would be a great help and hopefully help me to confirm that he is my relative! Many thanks Sam x

Hi Joyce If you dont mind I would like you to look up birth or christening of Thomas EARBY. I have the census results for him from 1851- 1881 which says he was born about 1826 (apart from 1 which said 1831) in Barksby Leicestershire. I havnt got the 1841. He is the only one I have in Leicestershire so far and would love to know his parents and any possible siblings, but only if you have time. He moved away from Leicestershire before he married in Bourn Lincolnshire in 1849. Thankyou very much for the offer.Any help will be very much appreciated. And please do your own research first and only look at mine if you have time. Julie
