Hi all
I have a friend in Amsterdam who is currently doing a transcription project for her local archives. She came across a death in Amsterdam of a woman from Hull in England. Obviously if anyone in the UK is researching this person, the chances of them ever looking for her death in Netherlands is slim to impossible I would say!So she sent me all the info over on the chance it might make a family tree enthusiast very happy one day if they come across it.
And here's where I need some help! Any ideas where best I could post the information/death cert? I thought this site might be the best but don't know what category would be most suitable??
Thanks in advance, Karen

Translation:
Today March 6th 1868 appeared for us Civil Servant of the Burgerlijke Stand (Civil Registration): Willem Honstede, messenger by profession, old 53 years, living in the Binnengasthuis, acquiantance of the deceased, and Willem Ronneman, messenger by profession, 38 years old, living as mentioned above, acquiantance of the deceased, who declared that on 5th of this month at 05h00 in the house standing Achterburgwal Kanton 1, Area B number 34 (is Binnengasthuis = hospital), has passed away Marie Ann Job without profession, living in Utrechtsedwarstraat Z320 , 38 years of age, born in Hull, unmarried daughter of William Job and Elisabeth Kerkus. We made this record, which was, after being read out loud, signed by the informants and us.

I've had a quick look on Ancestry and can find many William Jobs in Hull (Kingston upon Hull) around 1850-60 but not this one.  Could be offshoots of the same family.  Have tried looking for Marie's birth in Hull around 1830, but no joy.  Neither can I find the marriage of William and Elisabeth.  I've also tried familysearch.org but drawn a blank there too.  Sorry!  Someone, somewhere may have a better idea than I...happy hunting!
