Death look up please(not on ancestry)
« on: Monday 10 March 08 21:49 GMT (UK) »
Hi i wonder if anyone can do a death look up(no ref on ancestry) taken from Shropshire burial index of a William Cooke abode Tetchill Moor burial Ellesmere date of burial 14 April 1837 age 67. Need to know if any more info especially informant as i have another William Cooke death cert in 1841 and i dont think he is mine.

Mine is not with wife and family in 1841 census so think he did die before then

thank you

Hi cher

Official registration didn't start until Sept quarter 1837 so it would n't be recorded as it was before then. I think the burial index or a parish record might be the only sources.

Hi Cher

Have a look at Shropshire FHS MIs http://www.sfhs.org.uk/mi_surnames.asp

The printed booklets of MIs are available to buy.

Also, if there is no MI for him, the Shropshire Archives are very helpful:
