Seasonal Greeting's....... Revmother 2.
Nothing showing up using resources to hand. But if you can wait till this time next week then I can have a look at the Parish Registers for you at the Records Office Wigston.
I used to stay in the Vicarage of Loddington back in th 1950's when it was a Y.H.A. Hostel. beautiful old house.

Greeting’s Again Revmother 2.
The Mystery depends …..
I did look at the Parish Baptism Registers For St. Michael & all Angels. Loddington. Leicestershire.
The closest I could find was :-
BAPTISMS :- ANNO DOMINI 1806.
4th. Entry :- Mary Daughter of Joseph & Sarah Hill …..Sept. 23rd. I must admit the “ Daughter “ could have been taken for “ Drought “ Not your copperplate hand writing on this page.
Also checked out All Saints East Norton next Village up the Road But drew a blank I’m afraid……...
Checked out the Marriage
St Margaret's Parish Church. Leicester.
Page. 173. Entry No. 519.
Henry Kibby. Bachelor. of this Parish. Mary Drought. Spinster. of this Parish.
Married in this Church following Banns. By me Robert Barnaby . Curate. On this Twenty fifth day of December One Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty Four.
Both Henry & Mary signed by their own Marks = + times 2.
Wit's:- John Drought by his Mark = + ( Her Farther or Brother ? ...ummm ) Ann Vaughan. by her Mark = +
Tracked them through the Censuses:-
1841. HO 107. 604./ 11. Page. 24. Keyword = Kibby. Leicester. St. Margaret’s with Bishop Fees. Bedford Street.
Henry Kibby. 35. Frame Work Knitter. Y Mary. 30. N. John. 15. Y. James. 10.Y Joseph.9.N. Eliza. 6. N. Ann. 4. N. Also within the Household :- David Peach. 40. Hair dresser. Y Henry Peach. 7. Y
Y = Yes Born within the County. N. = NO Not born within the County.
1851. HO 107. / 2089./ 223. / Page.26. Leicester.. St. Margaret’s Parish. 24. Caroline Street.
Henry Kibby. Head. Mar. 47. F.W.K. b Stoney Stanton. Leicestershire. Mary 45. b Loddington. James. Son. 20. F.W.K. b Leicester. Joseph. Son. 17. b Nottingham.
Henry Kibby. Head. Mar. 57. Master F.W.K. Employing 1 Man. b Stoney Stanton. Leicestershire. Mary HITCHETT Servant. 54. Glove Stitcher. B Loddington.
No sign of Mary his wife although he states he is Married ?
Checked out burials Welford Road Cemetery:- Kibby --- 27 Feb 1854 Inf 19 Mansfield Street SAINT MARGARET U I 418 C 2058 CHILD OF JOSEPH Kibby --- 13 Dec 1870 5days Olive Street ALL SAINTS U S 282 C 25260 CHILD OF ELIZABETH Kibby Henry 18 Oct 1879 57 Laxton Street SAINT MARY C G 176 C 20852 Kibby Jane 17 Jan 1882 39 Laxton Street SAINT MARY C G 176 C 23076 Kibby Joseph 29 Dec 1882 51 Barston Street SAINT MARGARET U R1 1276 C 50304 U. = Unconsecrated Ground. C. = Consecrated Ground. I,S,G,R1. = Section. Next column. = Plot No. C. = Common Plot. Then Burial No.’s.
So with this new Name from Loddington I need to have an other look at Parish Registers again….
