Wonderful Nicola! Looks like his first wife died and he married again.

Does it say specifically where the father George Tilley is born by chance?

Thanks so much for this.

Thanks all for your help. Where is St Lukes in London. I've just typed it into Google Maps and it doesn't seem to register as a district in London. Does anyone know the area?

St Luke's is an area in the London Borough of Islington in Greater London, close to the borders with the London Borough of Hackney and the City of London, near the Barbican and Shoreditch. The closest tube station is Old Street. The area includes City Road, Finsbury Square, Whitecross Street, and part of Old Street. The name is rarely used today.

Thanks all for ALL this information. Is interesting that St Lukes is not used today - hence why I couldn't find the place!

He's a farrier

Belinda Report 23 Feb 2008 09:35

BTW I've looked on the IGI and a possible christening for George gives parents as Henry and Ann. The christening took place at Spitalfields Christ Church, Stepney, London, England on 20 April 1828, although I'd have to prove this is the right George. The other George on the IGI was christened in 1826 and has the middle name Aymand which is quite unusual. My George has never used this name in the census records by the looks.

So probably the 1828 would be the right 1841 census record Jim!

Belinda Report 23 Feb 2008 09:36

Yip, that will be him everyone as he was a Farrier on his son Henry's marriage certificate. Thanks all so much for this!

Does he appear in 1851?

Belinda

Belinda Report 23 Feb 2008 09:38

Oh sorry I mean in 1841!!!

Also is the Ann Tilley in 1851 born in Yorkshire by chance. I've just found a marriage on the IGI for a Henry Tilley and Ann Walker in Kingston Upon Hull, Yorkshire in 1813 which is a possibility.
