Title: Jane Ginny Tumilty died 1918
Post by: luke1504 on Wednesday 30 April 14 19:44 BST (UK)
Hello folks, could anybody help me in finding any type of info, newspaper clippings etc on a Jane Ginny Tumilty, born June 1903, Sunderland, died March 1918.

Rumour has it that this poor young girl, died through the event of a fire in her house due to her clothes catching alight, even though she survived the fire, she died a few days later in hospital.

Any info would be gratefully appreciated

Kevin

Getting a copy of her death cert would give a cause of death, and thus confirm or deny the rumours surrounding her early death
It will also tell you if there was any inquest.


Jan/Feb/Mar 1918
Sunderland
Ref 10a 744
Jane Tumilty  age 14

Certs can be ordered from www.gro.gov.uk using above reference.
