His burial is on the new FamilySearch site, Tom - 25 Feb 1888 at Coleshill, although it doesn't specify what graveyard. (I don't know whether there is more than one?)

[Tom Tom]

Thanks Kate, I have never really used the new site but will have to learn... already found a couple of other things.

Just wish I could find him in 41 and 51.

Had a google and Coleshill cemetery opened in 1893 so presume it is in the parish church. I shall investigate further!

Is this him in 1851?

The only Goode headstone at St. Michael's, Maxstoke, seems to be for a William E, but the index unfortunately doesn't give the date or age.

No Goode headstones at St Peter and St Paul, Coleshill.

Thanks Kate, think that is him!

Thanks Mary, don't have a William E but it is something to look into later on.

[Mary from Italy]

This looks like his mother and siblings in 1841:

[Tom Tom]

Yes, thats the Mother and siblings but his Dad isn't there either.

His father, Thomas Goode born c1793 in Maxstoke died in 1863.

[Mary from Italy]

This might be Thomas in 1841, still living in Maxstoke, as a servant:

[Tom Tom]

Thanks Mary, I think that is very likely to be him. He was a groom at the time of his marriage and then a coachman so that fits with Male Servant.

Thanks for your help.

[Mary from Italy]

Can't see any sign of Thomas senior in 1841, in Warwickshire or elsewhere.

I wonder if this is him? although he should still show up on the census:

Hmm, looks interesting Mary. His age is slightly out but it might explain why he wasn't at home, but as you say, he should be somewhere else!
