DYBALL family in Deptford - when did Mary die, please?
« on: Thursday 25 June 09 08:07 UTC (UK) »
My ancestor's sister, Mary Fletcher nee Sadd, married John Dyball in 1856 in Deptford. I have discovered a lot about John's occupations, where they were in census, civil registration details of his first wife and of his children, and I obtained a copy of his will after receiving his death certificate. Also, I visited Brockley Cemetery, where he is buried. He died in 1885 at 1 Reginald Road, Deptford, also known as May Cottage; the informant was Caroline Smith, a sister of Mary. John and Mary were there in 1881. In 1891, John's daughter Elizabeth was there with her husband Samuel Rutherford and their children. Caroline was next door. Mary is nowhere to be seen, unless she is in Camberwell with the wrong age given.

What I cannot discover is when Mary died. Quarter by quarter, the GRO indexes have been searched - in the, late lamented, Family Records Centre, and from the ancestry site, but the registration is not there. I know that sometimes deaths have not been registered, having found at least one occurrence of that recently. However, I would dearly love to know when she died. So, if anyone out there is researching the same family and has this vital piece of information, I should love to know it, please :-)

Mary was born in 1821 in Little Glemham Suffolk.

I feel sure that she would not have married again after John died. Apart from any other reason, he was a wealthy man, and his will stipulated that should she remarry, then she would forfeit everything.

Have you ruled this one out?

Deaths Dec 1917
Dibble  Mary  93  Greenwich  1d 1046

Age is a few years out, as is spelling but both of these could depend on who registered the death.

Thank you for looking for her.

I think that lady, in the census, was born in Greenwich and was single. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained :-) - I shall email the register office to ask them.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, the register office does not do searches.
