The name you are looking for is Emma Kehvrah Wright. The enumerator appears to have taken her second name as her surname. Ref. Birth December quarter 1844 registered Leicester.

According to my copy of Martin Bloxsom's book written in 1918, The History of Gilmorton, Elizabeth Woodcock was the wife of Randolph Woodcock, the vicar of Gilmorton.

In this book Bloxsom states that Randolph Woodcock was presented to the Rectory of Gilmorton by his brother John Woodcock a citizen and haberdasher of London on 26 March 1605. He also states that Randolph Woodcock was the youngest son of Thomas Woodcock of Holmes Chapel, Cheshire.

So there you go. It needs checking but there is your link.

Was he William H Foster, Caz?

I can confirm his full name was William Henry Foster.

Just for completeness here is a picture of North Kilworth church that I took today. George and Martha Bennett's grave is behind the yellowy tree, centre left. The dark grey gravestones in front of this tree are mostly Bennetts as well.

As promised I went to find George and Martha Bennett's grave today in North Kilworth and I've been lucky.

Here's the image of their gravestone tucked behind a tree to the rear of the church amongst all of the other Bennetts who are buried there. 

Donald, If you want the images of the other gravestones please PM me with your e-mail adress and I will send them to you.

There is also a reference to a George Bennett being buried at North Kilworth 19 December 1878.

 

I've just checked this with the BMD's and it appears that George Bennett died in June qtr 1872 aged 68 Registered at Lutterworth, Vol 7a page 4.
And it looks as if it was Martha Bennett who died in December qtr 1878 Registered at Rugby .
Sorry for the mix up...
Bryo.
