Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: 1901 occupation translation
« on: Sunday 05 January 14 00:41 GMT (UK)  »
Ahh yes that seems right. It's been a while since I've looked at these kinds of records again so very out of practice  :o

Thank you very much.

Derbyshire / LEAK family mystery
« on: Sunday 05 February 12 21:38 GMT (UK)  »
Hello all

I've been researching my tree for a while now but have well and truly hit a dead end with my research (unless I travel up to Derby)

The furthest back I have managed with some solid info is George Leak b. 1759 and his brother John Leak b. 1754 in Eckington I think. George married Ann Staniforth in 1781 in Eckington.

There is a line that backdates a few hundred years and is a distant royal line that ends with Nicholas Leke, the Earl of Scarsdale. This is relatively easy to google so will leave out info for now.

I believe my line and this line somehow links and I have an 80 year gap in the research which I just cannot find for the life of me. Would anyone be able to help me solve this riddle once and for all?

Regards,
Sam

Oh brilliant! Amazing detective work, thank you. I'm new to doing parish record research so would you find this to be pretty conclusive or would more research be needed?

Hello all

I have hit a dead end with my research. I've got a John Leak born around 1786 in Eckington. He married a Mary Fisher but I'm not sure when. I don't have any concrete bdates, or marriage dates so would be happy with any information at all really since I can't find any records for him except the 1841 census.

Many thanks for your help

Sam  :)

Derbyshire Lookup Requests / Parish Register lookup LEAK
« on: Monday 13 December 10 22:55 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all

Merry Xmas! I'm searching for a relative by the name of John Leak. I don't know exactly where he was born but it was circa 1786 in Derbyshire. He had a wife called Mary Fisher who he married in 1804. I've found him in the 1841 census living in Eckington but I do not have access to the parish records so I am struggling to get back another generation. Your help would be much appreciated!

Thanks
Sam
