HI Beryl

As the family are in Long Buckby Northants in 1861 which information are you looking for that we maybe able to help you with.

Are you wanting to go backwards or forward ? Northants or Leics?

Hello
Thank you for the reply< I am trying to track down a EDWARD WELLS b? I do not know his birth place, so I am trying to trace it, he had a daughter KATE CATHERINE WELLS b1872c she married @ PARISH CHURCH Loughborough 1896 to STEPHEN ASHFORD b1872 I think SOMERSET, some one sent me the
1851 census for LONG BUCKBY NORTH
with
WILLIAM WELLS   HEAD 42
BETSY 39 wife
EDWARD 2
I am trying to go back and track down William's parents, but how can I be sure this is my EDWARD ?when I have no idea of birth place of him or
KATE Catherine. I am looking for either LEIC OR NORTHANTS, area's, and I suppose I am trying to make certain they are my family,  hence the hesitation, any advice would be great thanks again

Hi Beryl

Hi Beryl

I thought I was going "up the wrong tree" but on freebmd their is a marriage of an Edward Wells to Emma Lumm in the Dec Qtr 1868 Leicester Reg District which fits in.

Now if some kind soul could find it for you it may confirm William as his father?

I have found Edward on the 1871/81/91 and 1901 Census and will list if we have the correct man.

Hi Sandy & good morning
Sorry I did not reply yesterday not feeling to good, a million thanks for the help you are giving me, do you think then that my Edward Wells, is the one born @ Long Buckby?, Kate Catherine father was Edward Wells and as I said all I know of him is his name & Occ which was a Labourer.
How can I confirm that William is Edward's father.
