Whiley family
« on: Thursday 20 April 17 20:00 BST (UK) »
Hi I don't suppose anyone has any suggestions on finding out about my great grandparents death they both died in 1919, Joseph whiley and Mary whiley (was going) one in September and one in December? We are trying to find out how they died and what happened to their children, Charles and Albert as they were both quite young? Any help would be gratefully received!

To find out the cause of death you would have to buy copies of their respective death certs

There was a major flu epidemic (Spanish flu)  at that time which resulted in millions of deaths so that may be the cause

Deaths Sep 1919 
Whiley    Joseph    45    Northampton    3b   76    
Deaths Dec 1919 
Whiley    Jane    32    Northampton    3b   76

Albert Henry Whiley was born 1909 so possibly was brought up by relatives or neighbours etc etc

Can't see any birth for Charles in Northants

Albert henry and Arthur Ernest both baptised 23 July 1911

Arthur died Q4 1959 - Brixworth district

Think this is Charles

Charles William Going
Q1 1908    Northampton  Vol 3b, p67

there's a baptism where the parents are listed as Joseph and Jane Going of 12 Parkers Row

George and Arthur Whiley appear to be together on the 1939 census

Thank you everybody appreciate the info, Charles was registered as 'going' as he was born before they were married!

Thank you so much sandy that's really helpful! This side of the family has been a complete nightmare! We couldn't find my grandad for years didn't even think of him being born out of wedlock! My dad seems to remember stories of him joining a travelling circus so trying to establish what happened to his parents to see if that sheds any light! Thanks again for your help
