JOHN PEACH BAILEY

I am researching my family. I have been lead to Leicestershire England for my ancestor John Peach Bailey. He was born in Bellgrave, Leicestershire England in 1817. He married Mary Ann Palmer on September 19, 1839. He died April 4, 1882. I am hoping to find a copy of the birth,marriage or death certificates.Or anything else that would help me go one more generation past John Peach Bailey.

 I would also like to know where they are buried and if I can purchase a photo of the headstone. Any help would be great! Thank you!

JOHN HAYES

John Hayes (my Great Grandfather) was a Railway Station Master at Shenton, Leicestershire from 1876 to 1912 (from census, marriage, birth & death certs). I am trying to find out when he died. I have two “incorrect” death certs from Leicestershire which I would be happy to send to your society if they are of use. Do you have any info on railway workers from this time and place?

Hoping you may be able to help me

Regards

EDWARD WESTON

I am researching the paternal side of my family tree and am interested in any information anyone can provide me about EDWARD WESTON.  I know from my research so far that he was born in either 1789 or 1786 in Enderby, Leicestershire and he married 2 sisters; Eleanor Brooks (on 10 November 1811) and then her younger sister Mary (on 11 June 1823) at St Margaret's, Leicestershire.  He was a millwright and he lived in Leicestershire his whole life until he died in June 1846 at the age of 57.  I am descended from William Weston (born 11 July 1842) - the last child of Edward and his second wife Mary.

Any information anyone can send me on Edward Weston would be very much appreciated.
