In the 1861 census William Jnr is living in Goole Yorkshire with his wife and son, I have never been able to find either of the Williams in 1841 or 1851 I know that THURMAN is quite a common name in Leics But I have not found any THURMAN's with a connection to Gaddesby, does anyone know of any THURMAN's in that area. William Junior married JANE GELL in Snaith, Yorks, I have been unable to find out who his mother was. I would appreciate any help I can get Regards Trevor ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to LEICESTERSHIRE-PLUS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
