Having no look searching for william healeys parents

[silver12]

Hi the lady i spoke to wasn't very helpful i got the impression she couldn't be bothered. I got an email telling me his grave num and that was it.

You could put a post on here headed 'Lincolnshire Archives look up Morton by Bourne' and ask if anyone going to the archives can look it up for you.

Having just looked at the 1841 census for William I see that amongst his children he has an Edward and a Fanny (Frances)  It certainly looks as though the marriage we found is likely to be his parents.

The other alternative could be to order Film 1450470 from your local LDS family history centre and view it yourself there

Hi,

There is a snippet in "Grantham in the News  1851-1875"by John Pinchbeck

Headed  Maintenance.

Edward Healey of Keisby agreed to pay 5p a week towards the illegitimate child born by Elizabeth Taylor plus 50p for the midwife.

I wonder if Grantham library has any Morton by Bourne parish records.?? I could get in touch tomorrow and find out (as I am not in library until Saturday morning) If so I will let you know.

Thankyou Kathy very kind of you x how did you come across it

Your Edward Healey husband of Frances was dead by 1851. 
There is an Edward Healey living in Keisby in 1851 who is 'married' though his wife was 'away from home' at the time of the 1851 census - he was bn 1812 in Leicestershire so probably not related to yours.

Hi

Have been in touch via phone with Grantham library and they do not hold Morton by Bourne parish records BUT Stamford library does so the head librarian rang them up and Stamford(who are busy at the moment ie short staffed etc) will find the info and email a copy to Grantham who will send it to me.It could? be a couple of days but we will get a copy of original.So Silver12 if you can send me your email address via PM I will send them to you.
