Searching for 2 different LUCY DARBY'S
« on: Wednesday 18 January 12 20:13 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I have been desparately looking for 2 LUCY DARBY'S.
The first LUCY DARBY I am looking for is the daughter of my 3x grandparents
JOHN DARBY and ANN CHAPMAN

LUCY I have being born around 1870 barrow upon soar, sister to my 2x grandfather JOHN DARBY
also sister to SAMUEL DARBY bandmaster of the BARROW ON SOAR PRIZE BAND, and also to WILLIAM
and TOM.
I don't know whom she may of married or what happened to her. I found a LUCY DARBY married in 1891
to either HERBERT WILLIAM FOX or HARRY TAYLOR in barrow upon soar june qtr 1891

The other LUCY DARBY is the neice to my first LUCY.

TOM DARBY(mentioned above) (brother to LUCY DARBY  B 1870)
married to SARAH CHAPMAN born about 1859 loughborough.They married
about 1879 loughborough.I have SARAH'S death in 1894

child: LUCY DARBY born about 1885 barrow upon soar.
     There was a niece visiting them MARY RUSSELL born in loughborough.

TOM died the 19 may,1921 nottingham.buriedin barrow upon soar.
I don't know if anyone could track these 2 Lucy's down for me???

Thank you ;)

RG13/2983/11/13
Quorndon Leicestershire
Freehold Street
Harry Taylor 36 Engine driver stationary Quorn
Lucy 31 dressmaker on own account Barrow
Charles E 9
Gwendoline 8
Alice M 6
All children born Barrow.

Marriage FreeBMD on same page Harry Taylor and Lucy Darby Barrow June 1/4 1891 vol 7a page 317.. BUT there are 5 names on this entry with one male missing. However Lucy was a dressmaker on own account in 1881 and born Barrow and age consistent.
A birth certificate for one of these children would give the maiden name.

A Lucy Darby married a Norbert Hallam Reg Sept 1/4 1916 Barrow upon Soar vol 7a page 325

On FreeBMD using the surname Hallam with mother's maiden name Darby county Leicestershire
there is one birth in Barrow in 1921 and 4 in Loughbrough between 1923 and 1947.  Due to Lucy's age when married I don't think they are all hers but the one in 1921 is likely.

Hi Diddy,
I am a descendant of William Stevenson born in Loughborough c1805. I have read your posts with interest. I have been in touch with Vivijune with what I think maybe a new lead for us.
I went onto www.familysearch.org and found a Christening for William Stevenson in 1769 in Loughborough. His father was William Stevenson and his mother was Ann Jerram Stevenson. From that information I found a marriage between Ann Jerram and William Stevenson 17/07/1766 in Loughborough. I would like to know if you think.
I hope this information is of use to you in your quest to unravel our family history.
Best wishes.
Prof
