Re: Denton birth and parents - assistance please
Update: There is a website on Internet which mentions the Denton family. It indicates that Arthur Wellington Denton is, indeed, the son of William Wellington Denton. However, it does not list a DoB for AWD. Possibly because the birth records are not online. Arthur is one of 12 children born to WWD a...

Re: Help with occupation of Exciseman
Don't buy FMP credits just yet. I have a 90-day sub which is going to expire this month. I'm very happy to email you the FMP images for 1837 and 1849 wills, etc. Just PM me your email address and I'll send the FMP images to you. The 1849 will is so interesting! And very legible.

Re: Help with occupation of Exciseman
So Thomas Hill, snr (gentleman of Drayton Bassett) was the former agent to the Right Honourable Sir Robert Peel, Bart.
This is confirmed in Hill's 1848 newspaper death notice. Prominent family indeed!
