An email exchange has opened up new investigative avenues for the Tilley and associated families in Leicestershire.
The Extended Craxford Family Web Site is, of course, about the Craxford Family in Cottingham, Northamptonshire. However, a branch of the Tilley family relocated there from Thorpe Langton, Leicestershire, in the late 1700s, thus creating the link!
Alan Craxford has been most helpful in clarifying a number of questions I had, and I was most pleased when I could give a morsel back to him on a line he did not have!
If you have ANY relations in the Leicestershire and Northamptonshire areas, I would suggest you check out the site:
