Census Lookup and Resource Requests / Re: LORD, William & Joseph 1861

Yes this was the William Lord that Joseph was an apprentice to.  I think it is a good possibility now that William was Joseph's uncle since you do have a John Lord listed as one of William's brothers.

Hi Tom

I also have some Lord family from Leicester who were also shoemakers.  My great (x4) grandfather was Joseph Lord (b 1821).  His father was John Lord and he was married (1842) to Ann Wright (b 1822).  When he was 20, he was apprenticing under a William Lord (b 1806).   I don't know if William is an older brother or perhaps an uncle.

After 1861 there is no sign of Joseph or Ann.  I do believe they both died in the 1860's as I did find all three of their daughters in a workhouse in 1871.

Anyway it would be interesting to see if we may have a connection somewhere.  Please let me know.
