Hi, I seem to have found a time traveller lol, she has literally appeared from the sky Jane Illsley b 1823@ father George?.

Has anyone encountered this mysterious lady.

Many Thanks

Where have you found her? And that her father was George?

Select baptisms there is
JOHN Illsley
baptised 24 May 1823

parents George & Ann

do you think this could be a mistranscription for Jane -or do you have a mistranscription for John?

Cant find Jane but there is this George in Ashby:

Baptisms
St Helens,    Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire
ILLSLEY
JOHN, 6 Sept 1808
GILBERT, 16 Nov 1810
WILLIAM, 21 April 1813
Parents GEORGE/ANN
Williams has extra info,
Abode Ashby
Fathers Occupation Publican

George ILLSLEY Married Ann BOSWORTH, 5 Nov 1807 same Church

All above on FreeREG


1841 Census
HO107/594/2/Ashby de la Zouch
George Illsley, 60, Labourer
Ann Illsley, 55
George Illsley, 25
Mary Illsley, 25
Edwin Illsley, 11
Henry Illsley, 9
Luke Severn, 5

EDWIN is their Son, Baptised 5 September 1830
HENRY likely Baptised 25 December 1831, Mother ANN Illsley

So maybe another Daug of George/Ann that I cant find a Baptism for.

Only Jane I can find in 1841;
Jane Illsley    20, Servant, living in Nottinghamshire.
Says she is born in County but as we know the 1841 is unreliable sometimes

Thank you-Have also discovered that there are two Johns one of those being the 1823, perhaps this is Jane and she was registered as John due to mishearing...

Yes I think that is highly likely and I see Suzard posted that Baptism earlier.
