Glamorganshire / Re: Griffiths in Llansamlet

Grosehodge mentioned above (in Reply #17) that Francis Nethersole married Margaret Owen(s). His sister, Frances Ada Nethersole, also married an Owen, Henry James Owen. Was he related to Margaret, or is it coincidence? I understand him to have been a solicitor, of New Inn, London.
I have a very longstanding interest in Howard Staunton, so I would be very interested for any more information about the "consternation" concerning Francis Nethersole's marriage to Margaret.

Leicestershire / Re: Lakin alias Townsend
« on: Sunday 27 November 16 11:17 GMT (UK) »
One of very few records I noted as late as 1695 was from Phillimore's marriages for Leicestershire (vol. 12: Aylestone with Glen Parva and Lubbesthorpe) regarding a marriage, 29 December 1696, between John Townsend and Elizabeth Lakin, of Lubbesthorpe, by licence; I made a further note that John Townsend, 1656, was married before a justice. Lubbesthorpe lies a few miles to the S.W. of Leicester.
My earlier notes include three Lakin alias Townsend marriages at Norton by Twycross and my abstract of the P.C.C. will of George Laykin alias Townsend, a yeoman of Donnington Park. He was buried at Castle Donnington on 15 January 1625/6 (source: B.T.'s).

Leicestershire / Re: Lakin alias Townsend

This probably doesn't help, but some years ago I considered whether the Lakin alias Townsend family could be connected with my Townsend problem.
Briefly, I want to discover the origins of my ancestor, Erasmus Townsend, a basket maker who married at Lenton, Nottinghamshire in 1638. Since a potential father, another Erasmus Townsend, was buried at Buckminster, Leicestershire in 1640, I searched quite a lot in Leicestershire records,
including the Bishop's Transcripts. In the course of that, I came across a George and a Thomas (I think) Lakin alias Townsend, and others, but I found no connection with any Erasmus.
This was all pre-1650, so it is probably too early for your problem, but if you had any specific queries as far back as that, I could dig out my old search notes.

Nottinghamshire Lookup Requests / Re: 323 Basford Road Nottm

There can't be many streets with numbers as high as 323. Should it be 323 Nottingham Road, which I think was in Basford?
