Hello
I wondered if anyone will be going to Bath Records Office that would have time to look up someone for me please?
I believe from the following* that admissions have not survived and that only baptisms and death records do, so I am hoping he might be found under his death.
His name was James Morgan and he was born c. 1826 in Bath, Somerset. He lived in Hammersmith but must have gone back to Bath where he was in the Workhouse in 1891 aged 63/65 a pauper and a general labourer.
I have found a possible death for him in Bath in the 3q of 1898 aged 71 and wondered if sks would see if he can be found under the deaths and what information is held on him please?
Many thanks....
Magistrates & workhouse
Quarter and Petty Sessions
Bath Sessions books survive in almost unbroken series from 1682-1941. Entries are brief, and little supporting paperwork exists, but personal-name indexes exist for the years 1837-1894.
Bath Poor Law Union
No Workhouse admission registers are known to survive prior to 1914.
burials 1847-1899 are held, also transcripts and indexes.
