Leicestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Look Up please for William Cumberland

Thank you, those sound like the correct William.   I did not clue in about the 'born in same county' column when looking at the census. Great info, and much appreciated that you have all taken the time to look things up for me.  Also, the newspaper gives me a more definite date to look for.

Thank you for looking that up David, much appreciated ! He did have a son Francis so that could be his, but I believe my William was at least 20 when he married, thinking his birth must have been 1779 - 1788?  The problem I am encountering is that William, John, Francis and Thomas seem to be popular names for more than one Cumberland family in that area. Patronymics at work?   ???

Hello, I am writing from Canada, and am hoping that someone can assist me.  I cannot locate a birth record for g.g.g. grandfather William Cumberland, member of the Loughborough High Street, Wesleyan church.  He was married in 1808 to widow Kitty Parkinson (Bilson), and possibly died in 1850.  Can anyone do a look up for him for burial record, please?  For some reason I think he may have been buried at the All Saints Parish cemetery. Any suggestions to assist me overcoming this brick wall would be very much appreciated.

Thank you for reading my post,
Cheryl  :)
