James Medcalf of Kendal born Sedbergh about 1848/49
« on: Tuesday 13 July 10 11:13 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find the death of James Medcalf born Sedbergh Yorkshire around 1848/49.  He is married to Emma born in Liverpool in 1850 and has one daughter from his previous marriage.  She is called Alice and was born in Kendal in 1888.

I have found the family at 5 yard 59 Stramongate, Kendal in the 1901 census but the residents of that house are not recorded on the 1911 census.

Variants of the surname are spelt as Medcalfe / Metcalf / Metcalfe.

If anybody could give me any information about James and/or Emma and Alice after 1901 I would be very grateful.

Thank you - JVM

Bridget - thank you so much for all of that information.  I shall certainly follow up the leads.  Think I have seen the 1906 death of James before but guess that I shall have to send for the certificate to see if he is mine.  The info re an Alice being in Accrington is good and I shall get onto that too.
Thanks so much for your help - Jenn :)
