Brickwall on Thomas Porter 3rd Great Grandfather
« on: Tuesday 16 October 12 09:50 BST (UK) »
Hi All

Please could I ask if anyone has access to Leicestershire parish records for the period 1800/ 1815 Baptism records

I'm looking for a Thomas Porter born 1806 c Leicestershire.

Info to date can be found here http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,416108.0.html

but for ease of search I'm looking for

Thomas Porter born 1806c  Leicestershire. according to his second marriage cert his father was a William Porter  occupation on Thomas's 2nd marriage cert states his father William Porter was a Brush Maker that was in 1850.

Thomas married twice
Once to Sarah Campbell in St Mary's Nottingham 1825
then to Hannah Daws in 1850 St Pauls Nottingham.

details from census
1841 says 1806 not in county
1851 says 1806 Leic
1861 says 1801 Nott
1871 says 1811 Leic

The parish records from Nottingham have been checked ( See Link) but I would appreciate a look up to see if
 Leicestershire offers any clues to his parents and siblings.

Any Help very much appreciated as this is a brick wall on my 3rd Great Grandfather

Kind Regards Judi
