Leonard Patchett

Leonard Patchett was the son of George Arthur Patchett and Mary Jane Tegerdine who married in the Lincoln registration district in 1885. Their children included: Gertrude Mary (b.1890/d.1905), Leonard (b.1898) and George William (b.1902). They had three other children who didn’t survive childhood [C.1911]. The Patchett family lived at: 8 Westgate, Lincoln, Lincs. [C.1891]; 8 Pine Street, Radford [C.1901]; 7 Garden Street, Radford [C.1911]. This latter address was also given when the Nottingham Evening Post eventually announced Private L. Patchett’s death [n.e.p.8.7.1916]. The post-war address for the Patchetts provided by CWGC is 54 Garden Street, Radford. George Arthur Patchett, who was a bricklayer’s labourer in 1891 and an underground navvy in 1901 died at Nottingham, aged 78, in 1946. What happened to Mary Jane, his wife, after 1911 is unclear.
