Query in Leeds
« on: Friday 08 June 12 21:09 BST (UK) »
An ancestor of mine in 1851 lived in Harehill Grove (or Lane).  He worked as a butler.  However the address only seems to house servants.  Was there a 'big house' in the area where he could have worked?  I always thought servants lived in?

In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth
