From what I know - all the Timsons in my family are from either Enderby or Croft. Further back from Peckleton, Glenfield and Higham on the Hill. They get everywhere, don't they?

My Grandma was Mavis Timson (1919-1971).

Just had a look, and this John Dennis was my Uncle by marriage.
He was adorable, a real influence on me in my life, bless him.
 
His parents were Herbert Timson and Florence Mason .   from GLENFIELD 

He was born c 1913 Anstey -- so .. as you say they got everywhere.

Whoops sorry slipping off Topic.

Ok..
Received John Patricks death cert. Feb 1888

it says ... Senile decay and he was in the Leicester and Rutland Lunatic Asylum Leicester.

So is that the Towers?

Hi xin I think that's the Towers because the other one was the County borough asylum.                                                           Sue
