Hicklin, Hickling, Hardington

[lisbonbuckeye]

Would like information on Edward Horatio Hickling born in Black Bank, England on October 24, 1860 (parents Thomas Hickling and Elizabeth Hardington). Also any information on Thomas Hickling born January 24, 1834 (parents unknown to me) and Elizabeth Hardington born September 25, 1835 (parents unknown to me) and died March 21, 1866 (not sure where so thinking England). They were married October 22, 1857. Thomas later married an Alice ?-last name unknown to me.

The marriage certificate of Thomas Hickling & Elizabeth Hardington will give the names & occupations of their fathers. You can get a copy online via the government website. The General Register Office (GRO) details are available on www.freebmd.org.uk (http://www.freebmd.org.uk) , but those of Elizabeth have been incorrectly transcribed. The correct GRO details for the marriage are:
December quarter 1857, Ashby de la Zouch, volume 7a page 251.

Could this be them in the 1861 census of Hugglescote, Leicester:

PRO Ref: RG9/2271, folio 44, page 13
Schedule 66, Hewards Cottage

Thomas HICKLING Head Mar 29 Coal Miner Lester Hugglescote
Elizabeth do Wife Mar 25 do Snibstone
Ernest Henri do Son 2 do Hugglescote
Edgar Horatio do Son 5 mo do do

If this is the correct family, there is an Elizabeth HARDINGTON born Hugglescote (Snibstone is almost next door to Hugglescote) in the 1851 census of Ashby de la Zouche (HO107/2084, folio 430?, page 7) who is a house servant, aged 15, in the household of William Robinson a Baker in Nova Street.

In the 1851 census of Hugglescote (HO107/2084, folio 586?, page 1) there is this family of HICKLING:

John HICKLING Head Mar 48 Coal Pit Banksman Leicestershire Hugglescote
Mary do Wife Mar 51 do do
Thomas do Son Un 17 do do do do
Elizabeth SHAW Visitor U 2 do Donington

Interestingly, on the next page there is a record of a Thomas HARDINGTON, aged 48, and his wife Sarah - could he be connected to Elizabeth??

Hope this helps.

Janet.

Thank you for this information. It is who I'm looking for because Edgar had a brother Ernest. Hope this will help me to get further back. Again thank you.
