Title: Frost Henshaw Connection
Post by: toeckes on Tuesday 05 December 23 22:10 GMT (UK)
My relative, Francis Frost, was born in 1817 in Bagworth. In 1881 he was listed as a relative living at the home of Joseph and Mary Henshaw, both born in Bagworth. I am trying to find the connection between the two. So far I have traced the Henshaw siblings ( all other census list them as siblings) as grandchildren of Richard Henshaw and Mary Frost who were married in Thornton in 1805. It is here that I’m stuck as I can find no Mary Frost born in 1780s . I am wondering if this Mary Frost was a widow ? Ideas? Leads?
