Title: Parish records-St Margarets Leicester
Post by: NooshieW on Sunday 05 May 13 16:03 BST (UK)

Hi
There doesn't appear to be any parish records for Leicester available online. Does anyone know where I would go for St Margarets Church records circa 1780's? Thanks

Thanks, also for your reply re: occupations.
I am researching for my other half. He grew up in Nottingham ,but his Grandads' family were from Leicester. They all seem to be around the St Margaret's area. We have used census information to get back to 1841, where Thomas Vernon is 55 (ambiguous obviously) , so I would like to find out more and go back further. Thomas's birth around 1786 would be great or any Vernon info pertaining to this family.
CHeers and thanks in advance

Thanks for trying, much appreciated. My partner's grandfather was Percy Vernon b 1901, his father was Frank Earnest Vernon b 1876 and his father was William born 1853. They are all from the same area, so there may be some marriages for them? Anyway thanks for everything
Kind Regards
