Meakin/Chadwick - Heanor/Ilkeston
- Heanor
I am researching my paternal family. My grandfather was Walter Meakin of Heanor who married Ann Chadwick from Ilkeston. They had 12 children (my father was no 11). Walter's father was John who married Elizabeth (I think Gillott) and owned a frameworks in Nook End in Heanor. They had several children, most of whom I have traced but there may stil be gaps particularly between 1853 and 1864. His father was Joseph married to Ann - the only relevant marriage I can find is Ann Gaskin in Heanor on 25 Dec 1832 which fits with John's birthdate. I think the Meakins prior to Joseph must have come from Ilkeston as the records seem to run out in Heanor. Any help or information appreciated.
