Where is Melton in Derbyshire please?
« on: Wednesday 07 May 08 21:00 BST (UK) »

Hi

I have someone who on two census records says she was born Melton, Derbyshire.  I cannot find a Melton in Derbyshire only Nottinghamshire.

There is someone of the same name birth registered Hayfield, Derbyshire.  Am I looking at the right person do you think??  Was there once a village called Melton near Hayfield?

Thanks

Thanks again Ricky

I think "ain't gotta clue" is probably the right district  Grin

Going off in search of 1861 Hayfield census
