Hi Joe, Chris listed some information on Richard, Ernest and Harry Pigott of Ely, so I thought that I'd add the information that I have. It seems to match Chris' information. Richard Pigott was the brother of my gt.gt.gt. grandfather William Pigott born in Ely. Their parents were Henry Pigott and Mary Carrington. Their children were: 1. Caroline Pigott 1824 -1824 Ely 2. Richard Carrington Pigott 1826-1908 Ely 3. Henry Pigott 1827 -1846 Ely 4. Mary Pigott 1828-1828 5. Hannah Mary Pigott 1829-1900 Ely 6. Ann Pigott 1830 - before 1841 Ely 7. William Pigott 1831-1878 Ely 8. Eliza Pigott 1832-1906 Ely William Pigott was an articled clerk (his father and grandfather had both been solicitors), living in Cambridge with his cousin Elizabeth Pigott Lawrence and her husband Juner Perry Lawrence (a solicitor) - 1841 Census. His father Henry Pigott died in March 1855, leaving in his will land in Ely and money to William. Then in May 1855 William married his Cambridge next door neighbour Susannah Langran in Clapham, Surrey. A few months later their first child Lavinia Carrington Pigott was born. In the next couple of census, William is described as a 'landed proprieter' and 'ind. He died in Wandsworth 1878 (my mother was worried that he might be the William Pigott who was suspected of being Jack The Ripper, but fortunately for us I don't think the dates matched up!). By the time of his death William had obviously gone through much of his inheritance, because by the 1891 census his daughter Lavinia Pigott was in a Clapham workhouse (aged 35) and she died a few years later. Hannah Mary Pigott married and Ely solicitor George Samuel Hall, who was also the Ely registrar & high bailiff of the County Court. Their children were: 1. Frances Mary Hall 1856 Ely 2. George Martin Hall 1859 Ely (Was the Coroner for the Southern division of Ely) 3. Annie Rose Alexandra Hall 1863 4. Henry Radcliffe S (also known as Stewart?) Hall 1867 Ely 5. Allice M Hall 1870 Ely 6. Agnes M Hall 1871 Ely Richard Carrington Pigott was a farmer in Ely. He married Mary Ann English Cross. Their children were: 1.
