Hello
I am looking for any information on Sleight and Hollingsworth family.
George Sleight who was a road worker for the council born around 1877 and married Lilly Hollingsworth in 1915 at Basford, Nottingham.
Lily as born Caistor area Lincolnshire around 1895 and died of TB in 1943. We think they had about 15 children.
Dorothy the youngest, born 1934 from Grimsby.
Doreen 1933 Caistor,
Ernest 1930 Caistor,
Joyce 1928 Caistor
Joseph William 1926 Caistor who married Ivy,
Annie 1925 Caistor
Harry 1923 Caistor who married a Kathleen May Madden.
George 1920 Sleaford,
May 1919 Sleaford,
These names we are not sure of being siblings of Dorothy sleight.
Mary, Katherine, Barbara, Tom, Timothy, John.
Lily’s father is Thomas Hollingsworth
Georges father is Joseph Sleight, mother Mary Ann Gooding
Joseph father William Sleight. (Both George & William’s name is spelt Slight in the census.
Can anyone help
Stringbean.

Hi Stringbean,

All surname Sleight
All Mother's maiden name Hollingsworth

Hi Suz
Nice to here from you and thank you for spending the time to find this information for me.
From your information I now know all these children have to be ours. I was not sure of Jack & Florence and did not know of Jacks Death.
I can not find Doreen on the FreeBMD, I keep trying but no informarion at the moment.
My mum Dorothy has always said she is the youngest of 15 and this now has found 12.
I know George Sleight & Lily Hollingsworth were married in 1915 at Basford, Nottingham. George was 38 and Lily 20 so I think George was married before lily and could have had 3 children.
I also know they have lived at Beeston in Nottingham.
thank you
Stringbean.

To all who may be interested in this thread?
Here is an update as most of this thread information is in the Derbyshire section
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,361956.15.html
As you will see there has been a lot of input to this thread plus the link to the site on Beeston
www.rootschat.com/links/05op
Anyone interested in Beeston, this is a brilliant site full on Beeston history.
Good news, I have found that my family tree connects to this family tree.
Starting with Thomas Hollingworth who is my great grandfather who is married to Mary Ann Moore nee Glenn.
I have found that the name varies between Hollingsworth/Hollingworth.
This tree has 343 individual names and 86 unique surnames,
these are the main names in this family tree.
14 Hollingworth
150 Hudstons
20 Smedleys
26 Dennis
Take care all
Stringbean.
