Title: Lockington Leicestershire
Post by: Poll on Thursday 09 March 06 12:38 GMT (UK)
I am trying to trace the family of Thomas Grimley c1798 Lockington Leic, married Mary Hickling of Bradmore Notts.

Where will I look for Lockington records.

[Forgive me if this is part duplicated - it disappeared when I went elsewhere to check spellings/locations.]
Just a thought:  Could Lockingham be a mistranscription of Rockingham (Leics).  On the other hand, there is a Lockington not too far from Bradmore, Notts.

Well the parish record, said Leics, so its possible its Rockingham. but I will check out Lockingham Notts as well. Thanks

Theres a bapt.for Thomas Grimley 21 Jan.1796 at Castle Donington,mother Elizabeth.I have several families marrying and having children bapt.at Lockington and can`t recall seeing any Grimleys there,my grand father had cousins Grimleys from Castle Donington,their father was born at Tamworth and their grand father at Whitwick abt.1842,before that i have no idea where they came from,but its that common a name,so they could be related
