wormleightons in enderby

[Mike from Leicester]

Greeting’s Again Whizzy…..

If you go to the Search Room No. 2. at the Records Office
The Index folders for Leicester Nonconformists are on the shelves to your right
Find George Street then year. This will give you either the Fiche Ref. No.
or the Micro Film No. ( Readers back in Search Room No. 1.)
But you still need to trawl through they are not always in year/Date order
or Chapel order.

MIKE.

Hi Whizzy.
Isaac Wormleighton and Hannah Foster. They married at Leicester Register Office 14 Mar 1844. Isaac 19 Hannah 18. Fathers William & Edward both Framework Knitters.
Isaac was the youngest child of William & Sarah Spence. They had 10 children altogether. Most of them were Baptised at the Independent Chapel Narborough. I have not been able to find a baptism of Isaac. In the 1861 Census Hannah had a lodger, George Mackness who was down as a Wormleighton but I believe he was a son of the lodger as Isaac died in 1852. Altogether I think Hannah and George Mackness had 4 children, not all survived.
Isaac's father William was an apprentice living at Earl Shilton learning to be a Framework Knitter. His father had arranged his Indenture. Unfortunately I don't know the fathers name but there was a baptism of a William Wormleighton at the Independent Chapel Lutterworth 28 Dec 1779 his father named as Joseph and living at Little Ashby.

I hope this helps
