Huntingdonshire Lookup Requests / Re: Eliza/Elijah Lilley born 1856 Kimbolton, Hunts
« on: Thursday 30 December 10 11:30 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I have been looking through the census returns and parish records for Kimbolton that I have and have come up with the following
John Lilley 1816 m Ruth Wagstaff 1819. They had two children 1) James1852 m Jane Wagstaff. James and Jane had 1)Alfred G, who married Florence Mary bt 12-4-12 who married Frederick John Carrington at Kimbolton on 18-4-1936 2)Harry E 3)Frank A. who married Emily died 1969 and had five children Albert, Dorothy,Winifred, George and Robert. 4) Edwin 5)Arthur 6) Walter.
2) Elijah 1856 m Mary Ann? They had nine children Evelyn 1878, Florence 1880-1979 (this is the one I knew) John 1882, Charles1884, Wilfred 1886, Ada and Myra both bapt 28-9-1890 and Ivy and Mary both baptised 24-9-1893
 I know some of  Elijah's children married but have no details as they moved away. Hope this is of some use and you can make sense of it. Where do they fit into your tree?

Best wishes ,Shawhurst

Hi Gillian,
Are you still interested in Elijah Lilley? I Googled his name and came up with your request. I am presently transcribing a tape made in 1978 of Elijah and Mary Ann's second daughter Florence who died the following year aged 99. She was still living in Kimbolton. She speaks in it of her grandfather with obvious pleasure. She confirms that her grandmother was Ruth Wagstaff "and Uncle Jim's wife was a Wagstaff. I knew Miss Lilley well and her niece gave us one of her chairs when she died. Is there anything else I might be able to help with?
Regards,
Shawhurst.
