Death in Derbyshire
« on: Friday 29 February 08 18:54 GMT (UK) »
Hello Moira,
Thank you for your offer first of all. I am having problems locating a death of a ELIZA LANGFORD. She and her family were living in CHURCH GRESLEY, Linton
area in 1881 census. Her sons married there upto 1885. Her husband REUBEN LANGFORD died in 1892 at Horninglow Workhouse. If you can find anything would be very grateful.

Hello, Thank you for your reply HeartyR.
Unfortunately no that is not her. Eliza was born in 1836 at Shrewsbury.
Her son's appear to have stayed in and around Derbyshire so I assumed she would have too. Though why her husband died in a workhouse I do not know. That is something else to follow up. I have checked on freebmd etc but nothing seems to match for her.

The workhouse also had an infirmary -so Reuben probably was ill and died "in hospital" -which was the infirmary in the workhouse

Yes that could be the reason Suz. His son's obviously didn't want to look after him.  His wife Eliza baffles me though as I have been unable to trace her after the 1881 census.
