Hi Fgdl65,

Yes, you are correct in applying for a birth reg in Basford district


Heanor and langley Mill come within Basford reg district

A lot of the present day Hubbards in Heanor area originate from melton Mowbray area-but I don't think they link up to yours

But I noticed John Hubbard was an iron Turner - when you receive the birth cert it would be interesting to hear the birth address. There aren't many streets/roads in langley mill that I do not know the location of

I have done some research on G R Turners(wagon makers)of langley Mill and Bridge St -which is an area where many of the iron/steel workers who worked for that company lived.

Just had a look for father John in earlier census

1901 he is described as born New Normington Derby - I think this should be New Normanton Derby -and would come within (probably) Derby reg district.

1881 he was living with his family at Dean St Langley Mill - Dean St runs parrallell to bridge St -and most of the occupants of those houses worked either as coal miners, at the local flour mill or at G R Turners!!

John is described by the family as being a coal miner but on most censuses he is an Iron Turner. He is also described as a Coal Hewer on my gran's marriage certificate

I will have to send off for my gran's birth certificate because I have just found out that my great grandfather isn't on the local Roll of Honour list which is unexpected

Update:

I received my grandmother's birth certificate this morning - thanks to everyone who helped me track it down. It is the correct certificate and confirms that I have the right John Hubbard
