Leicestershire

Hi Gillian
Thanks for looking for me. 1814 may be a little early for my John Parker. Is there anything I can do on line to find information. He was married to Elizabeth (parish of St Margarets) probably in Leicester where they lived, but I realize this is going to take some time to find, but I am grateful to you for your help.

I am looking for my gt gt grandfathers family. His name is John Parker b 1816 in Diseworth, Leicestershire. I have everything on the family from the 1841 census, and want to get back by Parish records etc to his parents and siblings. I have become really interested in the Parker family, moving from Leicester to Birmingham, having 10 children, working in the Jewellery Quarter, and I have high hopes now of finding out more.
Jackie.

Anyone else searching for Smart in Leicestershire? Poli.

I am interested in Warners (Burton Overy and Galby), Abel(l)s of Markfield, Arnsbys of Wistow.
I live in Leicester so may be able to help with your research.
Not just BMDs but sometimes wills, poor law records, trade directories, local newspapers & photos.
