« on: Monday 29 July 13 11:04 BST (UK) »

Hi all,

I recently found out that my gt grandparents, apart from having quite a few children, had a set of twins......Edward and Ernest Paxton born 1908.

The help I require is this ..... Can anyone find out ANY information about the twins....did they die, get married......go overseas??

I can't find anything apart from their birth on the NZ BDM site.

Parents were John and Diana Paxton sometimes Burrell Paxton.

Many thanks

Leicestershire / 1846 Leicester

« on: Sunday 05 May 13 09:22 BST (UK) »

Hi All,

I have ancestors who were born and bred in Leicester and was wondering if someone can tell me if there was an outbreak of some disease or the flu in 1846??

The reason I am asking is because at least 3 died in the year 1846, .....a husband, wife, and at least one child. This family was very well off so it wouldn't have been from malnutrition or similar, I shouldn't think so anyway .

Hope there is someone out there who can help.

Cheers

of a census?

I am looking for John James Paxton, born 1857/8, Middlsex London, who may have been in Europe during the 1881 census. His surname has been misread as Payton and Parton in previous Cenci.

OR where could I locate Cenci for Europe around this time?
