Leicestershire / The Boys Home, Leicester - Help finding records
« on: Friday 15 April 16 11:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Has anyone every come across The Boys Home, Stoneygate Grove, Avenue Road Leicester records for adults staying there rather than children?

My disappearing great grandmother gave this as her address in December 1912 and when i enquired with the children society they had no file for my grandpa, who should of been with her at the time. I do wonder if she came there with a new child (as she had come from a maternity home in London) but after this address she next appears in Blackpool!

and she had left my grandpa with a lady in Leicester.. no idea if this was an adoption or more likely just an arrangement... she never came back for him :(

Any help would be gratefully accepted :)

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Birth record for Jeremiah ARNOLD Isle of wight pls

Hi

I'm struggling to find a birth record for Jeremiah Arnold

It would be around 1778 as his death record puts him aged 46 in 1824 in Newchurch

His marriage also states he is from Newchurch but I can't find anything relating to his birth/christening/baptism

Any help would be gratefully received

Leicestershire / Mike from Leicester

Hi

It is my very sad duty to let you all know that my dad "mike from Leicester" passed away suddenly last Friday.

I'm sure over the years he has helped a great number of you and that was my dad... He loved to help with any problem and I know tracing family's brought him a lot of joy.

He will be missed more than would of ever realised and touched on so many peoples lives

Sleep now dad xxx with al my love always  Rachel xxx
