Warwickshire / Re: 1851 census family and a mystery
« on: Thursday 12 March 20 12:13 GMT (UK) »
I have been researching family in Newbold on Avon, Warwickshire back to the late 1600's and have found a whole mix of Checkland, Liggins, Ligons, Ligins, Checkland alias Liggins, Liggins alias Checkland - just about every combination you can think of.
The parish registers definitely mention the word "alias" but I've yet to get to the bottom of it. I'd love to know if anyone has an answer.
