Hi. Re:- William Dexter born 1864 Laxton
His mother was a widow in 1881 census (Elizabeth 46, born in Sutton Notts) could you please look up in 1871 for me and see if her husband is on that?
Thanks very much Teresa :-)

Hi Flick and Patchem.
Just checked 1881 on familysearch and it definatley says Elizabeth, born Sutton. Still if she's a widow there I still don't have her husband, she must have been quite young when he died.

Could do, but as its an outer branch of my tree I'm not sure I want to get it yet as I've got closer ancestors to buy first. Thanks for your help anyway.
