Family History Beginners Board / Re: Warners in Loughborough

Hi
Thanks for the reply and the new ideas and clues. I made a mistake and posted my grandfather was George Warner b1830 to William warner and Catherine Bradford. He was my gg grandfather. My grandfather was Herbert Joseph H. Warner b1877 in Loughborough to George Warner b1830 and Elizabeth Hennessey b1838. Herbert was one of 12 children. He immigrated to the U.S.A. around 1894-1899. I'm a grandchild from Herbert's second marriage. I am also looking for a child of Herbert who was born in 1920 in Jersey City NJ and taken to England about 1924 to 1928 by Herbert's Aunts after my grandmother died.
I also have been trying to connect William to other Warner families in Loughborough. The only possible connection I have is to Francis and Grace Wigley. It gets a little complicated. William and Catherine had a daughter Ellen b May 8,1824 and married Joseph Smith in Loughborough in 1846. In the 1851 England Census Ellen and her husband Joseph was living in Longborough. They had 2 visitors Francis John Oldner Warner and Jane Whitmore. The following year Jane and Francis were married on June 14, 1852. Ellen's husband Joseph was a witness to their marriage. Francis died in 1861 at an early age and is buried with his grandmother Grace Wigley and other family members in Welford Cemetery. Francis John Oldner was born in Basford. Since Francis and his fiancé Jane was visiting Ellen and Ellen's husband Joseph was a witness to their wedding it suggests a possible family tie. I put this aside because I couldn't find further evidence so I have been concentrating on William and Catherine's other children. I am so happy to have found another family member looking into this!
