I think I have located John Caldwell; he appears as John CAULDEWELL in the Death Index 13th June 1859; he died in St. Martin Hereford City, occupation COOPER. He's aged 68 but born in 1802; if this is correct then where was he in the census' of 1841 & 1851?
Thank you for your help.

Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / Re: GOODRICH Rothwell
« on: Friday 25 November 22 15:53 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you very much for all your research.
I now see why I got into such a muddle. They're probably all related BUT... I know definitely that Thomas Wheelwright in Uppingham is correct as I found him in the Guildhall Library, London when looking for his son William Freedom of the City.
Furthermore, his older brother Thomas King gave me the clue about his mother Elizabeth King married in Gaulby 1789 where he is a carpenter. So, there's more for me to look at; I have all the info from the birth of d. Ann. Some gleaned from a book by Trevor H Hall entitled: "The Strange Story of Ada Goodrich Freer"
Thank you once again for your help

Northamptonshire Lookup Requests / GOODRICH Rothwell
« on: Thursday 24 November 22 16:41 GMT (UK)  »
I have traced my GOODRICH ancestors to Rothwell & I'm attempting to take them further back.
Thomas was baptised in Rothwell in 1759 (yet to be proved). He married Elizabeth KING by licence in 1789 in Gaulby Leicestershire: widower & Carpenter (1st wife Hannah Cleaver). Thomas is later found in Uppingham a Master Wheelwright. There is a large cluster of GOODRICH families in that corner of Northants & Leicestershire. I've looked at numerous Baptisms & Wills but have not yet attempted to construct any families. Where do I go from here?
Any help/advice is much appreciated.

Thank you to all those who have replied to my post.
Yes to Prawn Cocktail, that was the one I had the random note about.
I'll close this now.

Thank you very much for your reply.
I have a random note, not dated, indicating that a will is available somewhere. Not much help/hope. Because of the geographical siting I feel I have to try adjacent counties. As far as I can deduce, Thomas was born in Rothwell; his daughter Anne was born in Rothwell.
There is a cluster of Goodrich families in Foxton and various other nearby towns/villages in Leicestershire.
I’m clutching at straws but I have received some very helpful advice from Rootschat.
