William Henry HEWITT
« on: Wednesday 01 February 17 13:53 GMT (UK) »
Morning:   I am seeking info on William Henry Hewitt, b. October 1846, died November 1925.  His wife was Sarah Hague, 30 July 1848 to 19 February 1883.  She is buried in City Road Cemetery, Sheffield, Grave 13558, Section Y.  She is possibly his first wife.

There is a William Henry Hewitt buried in Burngreave, Grave 12, Section R4, buried November 16, 1925, but in the same grave site, is buried "his widow, Amy Hewitt, age 79".  I am seeking any kind of information on Amy.  William would have been 37 when Sarah died, so I'm imagining that he married again, but can find nothing on his possible second wife, Amy.

Would appreciate any help and direction.
