I am looking for the burial of William Boyce born 1816 in Ditcheat Somersetshire.
He could be listed as
William Joseph Boyce / Boice
or Joseph William Boyce / Boice
or even just William Boyce / Boice
as we have conflicting info on the family name
We know he was still alive in 1871 but died before 1891 census.
He may be buried with his wife Jane Boyce / Boice nee Walker who later died on 15 May 1906 age 82 in Pontypridd South Wales ,
but we are still unable to find her burial either so possibly her body went back to Somerset.
Info already obtained -
He was last found on the census 1871 census at pecking mill Evercreech aged 53 with his wife Jane and children.
RG10 / 2440 f43 pg 1 .
Several of his children then moved over to Pontypridd Glamorgan South Wales shortly after this.
On the 1881 census Jane is in Pontypridd living with her son and his family age 58,
but it does not show if she is a widow or married RG11/5293 f 83 pg 3 film 1342274
Pentrebach Road , Pontypridd.
On the 1891 census Jane Boyce is still living with her son and family and now shown as Widow age 68
RG12 /pg33 Gelfran Tce near Rockingstone House,s Pontypridd
I have Jane Boyce who died 15 may 1906 age 82 ( Death Certificate obtained )
but am unable to find her burial in Pontypridd.
I am hoping she has been taken back to Somersetshire and buried with her husband.
They have Jane listed as widow of Joseph Boyce " Mole Catcher " on Jane Boyce's death certificate .
All help in the Evercreech & Ditcheat or Shepton Mallet area would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Dave Boyce
