His parents were Baptists, and his birth was registered on 3 April 1786 (Dr Williams' Library), so perhaps that was the date of baptism Details of each of his or her marriages - if any Married Ann Fletcher on 15th January 1803 at All Saints parish church, Loughborough, Leicestershire Occupation(s) - if any 1803: farmer 1830: maltster 1841: maltster 1851: beadsman, late farmer and maltster 1852: yeoman Addresses where they lived 1770: Quorndon, Leicestershire 1803: Rothley, Leicestershire 1813: Rothley, Leicestershire 1830: Rothley, Leicestershire 1841: Church Lane (East side) Rothley, Leicestershire 1851: Cave's Charity House, Beadhouse or Hospital, Church Lane, Barrow-on-Soar, Leicestershire 1852: Barrow-on-Soar, Leicestershire Date, place and cause of death Died on 5th January 1852 at Barrow-on-Soar, Leicestershire, aged 81.

Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable Will dated 16th December 1845; probate 1852. Memorial inscription - if any Not known What happened to William's money is a bit of a mystery. In 1822 he was left some land and orchards, and a legacy of £780, by a nephew who died young; he owned land in 1830 according to the list of freeholders, yet he died in a charity house. He left a will himself, in which he left legacies to his children, but the copy at the Leics. RO doesn't say how much his estate amounted to. Quote:
