If you are able to look at the Leicester parish records, there is a marriage licence for Esther Hunt and William Price

they  marry 26 May 1807 and the marriage lic. states she is the daughter of Thomas Hunt dyer of the parish of St. Nicholas; had a look at your tree after finding the marriage.

I did look at James 1861 and you have the census return I had already found and wondered if Ann Hunt age 86 with James should really say mother instead of grandmother? birthplace Ashby looking at the census return.

THANKS FOR THAT - I DID NOT HAVE IT.

Family Search does not give details of father or his occupation & Ancestry has no access to the parish record books for Leicestershire

SHAME !. I HAVE ADDED HER MARRIAGE TO MY TREE.

YES I AGREE - THE CENSUS RECORD IS WRONG - I have corrected it to Mother on Ancestry. THANK YOU for pointing this out.

Any more insights into the TRUE PARENTAGE of Thomas Hunt circa 1760 buried in Leicester March 1830, a dyer of thornton Lane? He is the father  of Thomas Hunt 1786-1856.
