Traced my family from Australia back to Staffordshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire, and one root came to Leicestershire via the marriage of Elizabeth Horton/Orton to Charles Ward (of Churchover in Warwickshire). The father of Elizabeth Orton was Thomas Horton/Orton, baptised 1756 in Tilton On The Hill.
Really great to find a site that helps.
But wish I could find the marriage of that Thomas Horton/Orton to Isabella.

re Betty Baker's interest in Reeds and Goodmans.
If she has any interest in tracing Goodmans beyond Samuel (see gravestones) who died in 1922, he is my grandfather. Ada who is mentioned on the atone died in 1980/1, a widow for 60 years!
I don't know if she has seen the East of Leicestershire book which pictures quite a few Goodman (Mammy and I think William on platelaying gang).
If she requires any info please contact me
John Lucas. An exceptional website

Congrats on your excellent website! I am a member of Uppingham Local History Group and am currently researching Rev Timothy Moxon who was Oakham Circuit Minister 1847-50. Tilton and Halstead were included on his 'round'. Could you please tell me if the chapels still exist, also Tilton Grange where he stayed with the Shilcock family when visiting.
Many thanks,
Margaret Stacey
