I`m still searching for any information on my gt grandmother born in Derby 1850,St Peters Parish..
She married George Nelson Grant in 1868 in the parish church of St Alkmunds. I am trying to trace her death and have been unable to find anything either in England or Scotland. She was in Perth Scotland on the 1881 census, but cannot find any information on her after that time. Husband, George Nelson Grant, was shown on the 1891 & 1901 census with a wife Annie,living in London, but cannot trace any marriage for them. He died in Leicester in 1919 Mary Hannah`s brother William Francis Copeland & his wife Emma, had settled in Leicester from around 1891. Was there a connection there?
Now suspect that Mary Hannah & husband George Nelson may have parted after 1881 and went their separate ways? if so, Mary Hannah would have been known by a different surname, and that could be the reason why I cannot trace her death?
Can anyone help, do you have any connection or know any details about this family? Any little piece of the jigsaw would be appreciated.
