  • Can't find William Barratt

    Hi all,

    I'm looking for William Barratt b.abt 1820 in Oakham, Rutland, England I've found him on the 1861 & 71 census's but not before then & I would also really like to know who his parents were if possible please. Thank you in advance for any help offered

      I think you will need to get his marriage certificate to help you find his parents.

      On the 1841 census there is a possible for a William Barrat born c1821, living in Rearsby Leic (which is where Alice was born) but he is living with a Ward family so no clue there as to whether he is your one. It does say born in Leicestershire but it could be wrong!

      There is a marriage in 1848 which could be the one - but if you're not sure of the mother's maiden name then it might be best to get one of the children's birth certificates first.

          I was looking at that marriage too Elaine and there is this birth on Family Search that would fit -

          Alice Phipps - Christened 3rd April 1824 Rearsby Leicestershire. Parents George Phipps and Anne
          Chrissie passed away in January 2020.

            If you want to send for a birth cert first Vanessa, this one stand out -

            Emily Barratt April-June 1954 - Melton M ref 7a 241
            Chrissie passed away in January 2020.
