Okay, I have Thomas Checketts born 1824 with wife Jane and daughter Emma born 1850 in Aston, Warwickshire. I cannot find any of them after 51 ;0(( The surname changes throughout census from Cheket in 41 to Checketts/Checkett/Chickett...tried all variations. Thomas I have in 1841 with his parents (HO107 P 1145 BK 6) The marriage for Thomas is in 1849 Solihul to Mary Jane Knight. Have looked under her maiden name also for them. Is anyone willing to have a look for them please? Have looked all through England and Wales....maybe I'm skimmimng past them.

Do you have reason to believe they remained in the UK? Could they have emigrated? Reg

Hello Reggie, This is what I'm wondering. I have a contact here who is asking me if my Thomas and hers are connected, both born 1824 Aston, Warwicks. He is the brother of my g.g.grandfather...who I have right throughout with the rest of the Checketts...bar Thomas. I've not heard back from her as to what she knows regarding this family, so wanted to re-check them myself. Looks like more credits elsewhere for me again....that will run out before I finish with them :0((( Thank you for replying.
