help with death pls
« on: Sunday 30 August 09 07:22 UTC (UK) »
trying to find the death of george allen born abt 1816 i think in stockport. he was the father of frederick james allen born abt 1849 and john allen born abt 1840 - his wife was named dinah. i have him in 1841 living in brinksway stockport with his wife and john however in the 1851 census is wife is lodging with another family in stockport and down as a widow. frederick james born in 1848 i have his birth cert. the only deaths i can find are 1843 and 1845 but he was obviously around in 1848 - any help greatly appreciated
regards

I can't see any other likely deaths for George, and he doesn't seem to be on later censuses.  (Some "widows" were in reality just separated from their husbands at a time when divorce was complicated and expensive.)

According to Cheshire BMD, the George ALLEN who died in 1845 was aged 30, which would fit, so I wonder whether Dinah fibbed about the father on Frederick's birth cert?

The other possibility, of course, is that he died in another area for some reason, but that will be hard to verify - his name is not uncommon...  Roll Eyes
