William & Elizabeth Boulton

[Milliepede]

1841 possible with

Eliza Bolton 50
Ann 20
Geo 1

The George who is then George Green after Ann marries Thomas Green perhaps?

[Jomot]

Sounds reasonable, although I'm not finding a baptism.

Some children baptised to William & Elizabeth:

25 Jul 1823 Ann d/o Willm & Elizth Boulton, Wood St, FWK
21 Jul 1826 Thomas s/o Willm & Elizth Bolton, Fisher's Row, FWK
12 Dec 1828 Diana d/o Willm & Elizth Boulton, Belgrave Gate, FWK

These are all quite late though, as Joseph was 19 when convicted in 1832, so born c 1813 

[Jomot]

It does seem to be the same family though, as there is a burial at St Margaret on 6 Feb 1833 of Dinah d/o William & Elizabeth Bolton of Gas Street, aged 4

[Jomot]

Also the burial at St Margaret on 29 Jul 1833 of William Bolton aged 46 of Gas Street.

Poor Elizabeth - her son is transported and she buries a husband & daughter, all within a year.

[Jomot]

In the same grave as Elizabeth Boulton is Clara Ellen Boulting buried 03 Nov 1877 aged 1.

The GRO has her mother's maiden name as BOULTON, and the only Boulting/Boulton marriage I can find is Jul-Sep 1872 Leicester JOHN BOULTING married Louisa Day or Emma Jane BOULTON.

Birth of Emma Jane BOULTON Apr-Jun 1846 Leicester, Vol 15 p114, MMN BOOT.

25 Dec 1844, St Margaret
Henry Boulton of full age, bachelor, FWK of Barstone Street.  Father: William Boulton FWK
Phebe Boot of full age, spinster of Baker Street. Father: John Boot FWK
Wit: George Mansfield & ?

Henry 38 & Phebe 42 are in Sparrow Hill, Loughborough by 1861, but the only baptism I can find that would fit his age is this one:

14 Jan 1822 St Mary, Henry Bolton s/o William & Lydia of Greens Lane, FWK   

Other children baptised to William & Lydia Boulton/Bolton are Thomas on 30 May 1817 & Joseph on 8 Jan 1820 - the address on Joseph's baptism being Green Street.

There has to be a connection somewhere to the Joseph born c1813, but I'm just not seeing it.

Leicester, St. Margaret   01-Feb   1836   Banns
Robert   Allen   OTP      Bach      
Mary   Boulton   OTP      Spin

Witness Joseph Wood

[Jomot]

Good spot. Some of their children's birth registrations show the MMN spelt Boulton. 

By 1851 they are in Goodacre Street and Mary gives her PoB as St Margaret, but I cant find a baptism for her either.  Interesting too that Mary & Robert name one of their sons Joseph - birth registered as Joseph OConnor Allen.

Good Morning researchers
You are all amazing! So fabulous to find your work this morning...
Thank you so much...a lot to go on with
I descend directly from Joseph Boulton...he married another convict in Australia... the family had a very very tough life ....I have become very attached to them and want to know they live on over there also. My dream is to meet one of my cousins!
