Right - I've just rung the number I gave you (above) and asked the following question.
"If someone died in 1935 and lived on Hessle Road, where would they have been buried?" and was given the answer...'either in Western Cemetery (Chanterlands Ave/Spring Bank) or the Northern Cemetery (Chanterlands Ave)'

So, your G Granddad could well be safe and sound in either of these two places.

Northern is where we found my OH's Granddad recently and we'd understood him to be elsewhere, so don;t give up yet!

Does their wedding certificate give you no information about his job or whatever? That might be an avenue to go down...

That's the stumbling block, I can't find a marriage for him and g.gran.  I have the certificate for her first marriage and a birth certificate for the last child she had with her first husband dated March 1878 on which she puts that her husband is deceased.  I can't find a death certificate for him either, but he could have been lost at sea.  My gran, was born in 1884 and I've looked for a marriage cert from 1878 (although g.gran is on the 1881 census as a widow) until her death in 1926.  By the way on my gran's birth cert he is listed as a fisherman, as he is on the 1891 census.  By 1901 and 1911 he is listed as a tobacconist/confectioner, on his death cert he was listed as a Master Tobacconist - I don't know how anyone can become a Master Tobacconist, that seem's a bit of oneupmanship on behalf of his son I think.

Many thanks for ringing the Bereavement Service.  I'll contact them again now and ask if they can do a search for me.  I wonder if g.gran is buried using her married name, or my g.grandfather's surname which she adopted.
