Lloyd London Mystery

Regarding W Fairclough Esq. when he acted as a referee for JBL's attemp to be a policeman, what was the address given for him? This was 1836 so might give a better clue as to where William and Elizabeth (if still alive) were living by the 1841 census.

Been trying to find them on 1841 but not getting anywhere at the moment.

no address just says customs

Looking at burials, there is a William Fairclough death in 1840 and an Elizabeth Fairclough death in 1844. Both show Lambeth addresses and buried at All Souls Cemetery. Aprox. birth years for both is 1779 which could fit. Maybe something to try and work from...

Off to bed now. Clear head will help and it's now left my body

Joshua Evans is peppered throughout JBL's life!

When did William Fairclough die? Was it his death c. 1840?

Wills make me want to go into a dark cupboard and weep  Just seen it! I'll have a look also, not that I am any good on these...but lots of Rchatters, as you know with James Collins' will, can do magic
