Anyone researching Goodman and Smith in Leicester

[Annie65115]

I don't think it's much help, but I think Prudence Goodman married Frederick Freer in Basford (Notts) in 1857. I still can't find her, or the rest of the family, in 1851, but Prudence Freer was back in Leicester in subsequent censuses.

I found much the same, John, Elizabeth's father is a labourer on baptisms and dies at the same address as 1841, Prudence does however have her father John as a bricklayer!

Who were the witnesses on the marriage certificate 1858?

[willsy]

Have found in the paper that youngest son James dies 1856, address matches Elizabeth's address 1858

For the sake of completeness, here are the occupants of James Goodman's grave. I can't see that it helps, at least at the moment -but sometimes clues become clear as more are uncovered ---

Hi there

Thank you for the cemetery details, yes there are Allen families connected.  Are there any layout plans for the cemetery. Joseph Allen is son of Robert and Mary Allen a frame work knitter in Leicester.

Here's a layout plan of the cemetery at Welford Road.

It's a big area, and not easy to find many graves. It's very full; parts are overgrown and impassable; and many people either had no memorial stone, or it's missing/damaged.
