Title: Early census look up please-South Leicester
Post by: coltman on Monday 23 May 05 15:09 BST (UK)

hello,

I've been unable to locate my x2 great grandparents on any census returns.  could some kind person check the 1841 (or earlier census if possible) please for:

James COLTMAN head (baptised 3rd july 1874)
Mary COLTMAN   wife (nee GOODWIN)

They should be in the south Leicester area, but all I currently have on them is the info below:

on their sons baptism in 1813 James COLTMAN is listed as a Farmer of Little Glen
on their sons 1st marriage cert, James COLTMAN is listed as Joiner
on their sons 2nd marriage cert, James COLTMAN is listed as a Cattle Dealer of Glen Parva

Any help would be much appreciated.

regards,

andy coltman

Hi Andy,

Had a quick look through Glen Parva, bits of Aylestone, Lubbesthorpe and Bitteswell. Some of it is very faint so don't assume they're not in there but the nearest I could find was the following:

Thomas Coltman, 75, Ind, not born in county
Mary Coltman, 43, born in county
Elizabeth Coltman, 40, born in county
