Help Wanted -
William SLEATH
Graham Sleath, Leicester. Please
respond by eMail to
.
I am trying to discover how my great great grandfather,
William SLEATH, who was born at Leicester in 1823 came to marry his
wife, Harriett COLLINS, at Greenham in 1846. It is possible that his
mother Elizabeth PARSONS married William GOLDAWAIN in December 1823 at
Bisham. Does anybody know if the parish records of Bisham reveal that
she was born in Leicester? I would be grateful if another member of the
Society could check the Settlement Examinations for William in the
1830s or 184os. I have already tried the 1841 census without success. I
would be very willing to carry out reciprocal research in Leicester in
return.
