Hi Mike,

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply - thanks for the information. 

I think that Harbury might be the right one - I have found Knibbs there - but I have made a note of Harbourne too ... just in case    These Leesons seem to get everywhere

I note with interest that Maggie says KNIBBS was Elizabeth LEESON's maiden name.  I'd love to have details of the wedding or whatever and will then look for her baptism.

Hi Alan,

The marriage I have for Elizabeth KNIBBS is:

William LEESON married Elizabeth KNIBBS at St Mary's Church, Hinckley, Leicestershire on October 12 1814.

I have not been able to find very much information on Elizabeth except that I think she might have been born in 1796 in Warwickshire - Harbury I think .... 

I would be very interested in any information you have on the Knibbs family - I have very little at the moment.  I have loads on the Leesons though if that is of any interest to you.

Hi Maggie, wondered if it could be ATTLEBOROUGH which is part of Nuneaton, just down the road from Hinckley. If fact i am playing football there later!!

Hi Kev,

It reads Harbury - but you never know do you?

I do have some rellies in Attleborough but they are in a different line   

Maggie 

PS Enjoy your match

Re the 1814 marriage, I see she is given as NIBB in the IGI.

The search continues.
