John Ravell Cockermouth area
« on: Tuesday 03 December 13 12:25 GMT (UK) »
Hi, im looking in to my family in the cockermouth area, they are:

John Ravell B 1858 abt. who married Mary Jane Bell b;1860 (9 brothers and sisters, Farther John b:1837 mother Sarah jane b 1837)
 children were Isabella 1894, Sarah Jane 1896, Ernest Henry 1897-1983 (great grandfather) and Mary C 1899-1981

one of Ernest Henry sons was Henry George Ravell my grandfarther who lived around Bothel.
Any ideas is great as we know nothing of John Ravell as he is not on the 1901 census and Mary bell wife is listed as widow.
Cheers in advance of any help

Cheers guys that's a great help, we don't know when he died I only estimate its around 1899/1900 due to the age of his children on the 1901 census.
