lavender lakey last evidence of him alive is in benefield
« on: Saturday 27 June 09 15:22 BST (UK) »
hi Cheesy

im looking for the death of lavender lakey born 9 may 1844 in welney norfolk,he married a widow eliza bullas nee robinson in sheffield on 3rd february 1872,the family seem to have moved around my gt grandfather harry lakey the 5th child of the couple was born in walsall west midlands on 1 june 1877.by the census of 1881 the family were living in clack bythorne thrapston.lavenders wife eliza died on 23 october 1886 in benefield northants and lavender was the informant at death,he then disapears from records.my gt grandfather harry married on 27th june 1898 in peterborough and he states father lavender lakey deceased,so it would suggest that lavender died somewhere between 1886-1898 but i can find no death entry for him . can anyone offer advice?
many thanks patsy

Hi Patsy.

I have looked through the Freebmd records and the original G.R.O. images
1886-1915 and as you rightly say there does not seem to be a death for
Lavender.

The children seem to be in different places in the 1891 censuses.

Do you think Lavender may have changed his name at all, a wild guess.

hi sandy
that was the conclusion i came to either he changed his name or emigrated after the death of his wife.he also had a son  named lavender born 1873 he shows in the census of 1891 living as a lodger at his fathers birthplace welney,and then he also dissapears.i checked to see if they were onboard any ships but couldnt find entries for either.just seems strange he is well documented right up until his death,and he wasnt given a middle name so if he did change his name i would have no idea what !!
