John Billingham born 1859 was a non-conformist and used to go up to the church and argue with the Parson. This of course did not go down well to say the least in those days. For his pains he was committed to "Berry Wood" in Northampton where he remained for some 30 years untill he died. He wrote a lot of religious music Unfortunately this has been lost. Unless someone out there Knows different. This information was related to Earnest James Billingham (Jim) by his father John Henry Billingham.

Colin Billinghams Note. The 1881 Census shows John Living at Dwelling: Church St
Census Place: Lichfield St Michael, Stafford, England

John Billingham Married age 22 years Male Born Hellidon born 1859, Northampton, England
Harriett Billingham Married age 25 years Female Born Bishops Waltham, Hampshire, England

John was a railway worker so he travelled around the country quite a lot, his place of residence at the time of his marriage was Rutland. His son William was born 1841 at Lichfield and most of the rest of the children at Wellingborough. John was married at Croyden so it appears that his work on the railways took him to many places.
