James Leeson 1826 - 1900
« on: Tuesday 16 April 24 13:19 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any information on James Leeson, married to Sarah (nee Pearl) and their family. They had seven children (poor Sarah!), and  his father, Benjamin, was a tailor in East End of London.
Thanks

Welcome to RootsChat  :D

Can you tell us what sort of information you wish to find?  Are you going backwards from his father or forwards with his children.

You have given no birth place for James.  Have you found census records for him?
