Thank you- I will have to look further into that now as he is definitely in Chrsitchurch in 1881.
Many thanks indeed x Another step closer!

Christchurch, Hampshire and Poole, Dorset are roughly 15 miles apart - so not that far

I was born in Christchurch xx

It still seems odd that he was buried in Poole but I will dig deeper.

Thank you so very much! So I have a Chelsea pensioner in the tree!!! I thought I could see Lily Sinton (b 1878) in Chelsea in 1901- I wonder if this is connected in any way.

Lily is with husband Herbert Way living Tarrant Launceston Blandford

Do you want the full details of her marriage or are you able to view the details yourself?

Thank you - but I am looking for Lily Sinton in 1901- possibly in Cheslea.

Many thanks
