Looks as if there was more than one in the area! The only thing we can be sure of is he was the one buried on the 17th October isn't it?

It certainly looks like it at the moment

George POSKET 56 b Fishlook?
Ann 48 b Yarm
Charles 21 b Middlesbrough
Julia 11 b Middlesbrough
Census ref RG11/4851/5/3

I tend to agree with you, don't ask me why, I'm not sure of any of it at the moment, except:

1901 Living Thorne, born Fishlake abt 1829, aged 72 years and a widower.
Next census date he's living Waterside, Thorne born abt 1830 aged 81 and he's a Army Pensioner.
Died 1911, buried 17th of October.

Have you found him in every census? You'd have thought if he really was in the Queen's Guards for 10 years that he'd appear with them or at least be missing for one census.

I'm afraid not groom, I have him in Thorne, 1901 and 1911, no sign of him in 1881 and 1891 as yet, and the 1861 and 1871 census results I have "May" be him

Good find, Keyboard, so we can eliminate that one then and the baptism I found.
