fascinating to find out about the place where my 4th great grandfather and his family were born and lived (name of Lilley) . (i am researching my family history) my dad was born in gedling and moved away when he joined the army in the 60's. It looks like a great place with a long interesting history . I had hoped for some royalty in my family tree, but they are mostly salt of theearth labourers, miners, workers.

Hello,
I'm currently researching my family history and coming to visit Greasley from Australia in a few weeks and would love to know if anyone has any information on the Lacey, Thomlinson & Burrows family.
My email is Tanya.A.Deane@gmail.com

Tanya

Can anyone help re: James Meakin born Greasley 1799 approx?
In 1841 he appears to be widowed with five children at home. (Thomas, Catherine, Emelar, Ann and Isaac)
I think his first wife was called Rebecca Needham and his father, Henry Meakin.

I feel exactly the same way, and the further back I go in my family history the more ancestors I have from the area, which is surprising because when I started researching the place I had NO RELATIVES from here, just a feeling of belonging!
