Thank you - have so enjoyed working through the site.
I was born and raised in Tilton and have very good memories and often return there.
I saw the gravestone of my dear friend Priscilla Hoare who died when just a young girl..

Have just spent some time going over your website thoroughly. Congratulations on a very thorough site.

My Grandmother, Margaret Bamford, was born in Tilton Wood Cottages in 1884. We never knew her as she died in Ontario just after the birth of my mother in 1918.

Three of her sisters are in your records - Alice, b. 1877 married William Matthews of Carlton Curlieu in 1897; Sarah Ann married John Thomas Rodwell in 1891 and Elizabeth married Alfred Arthur Perkins in 1899. On your census for 1891, you have John's surname as Rotwell - it should be Rodwell. He was from Frisby-on-the-Wreake.

Thanks for an interesting site - I hope to get to Tilton on the Hill and area sometime.

A very interesting and well prepared site. My father's uncle Ray HOLMES and wife Myrtle farmed at Tilton up to the mid/late 1960's until his retitrement and moving to Oadby. Ray came from Spalding area of Lincolnshire.
I wonder what was the name of the farm which I remember occasionally visiting in late 1950's or for the next few years. Did they have children born whilst they were there? Ray now deceased (Myrtle possibly also).
