Title: Hunt family Norich,Norfolk
Post by: TRAVELLER2010 on Wednesday 30 November 16 06:44 GMT (UK)

I am trying to find death date and burial location of my Great Grandfather.His name is Alfred Hunt,born 1846 in All Saints,South Elmham,Suffolk.U.K.
Last known location was Aldeby,Norfolk in 1981,age 45. Was married to Ellen Frairy,born 1845 in Gillingham,U.K.
They had nine children,Walter 1872,Rosa 1873,Samuel 1875,Mabel 1877,Jessie 1879,Edward 1880-1932 (My Grandfather,my dad's father,died in Saskatchewan 1932,Ella 1883,Charles 1885 and Frederick 1889.

1891 England Cencus provides birth date but no death date.Ella was killed April, 1942-43 Naedeker air raids. Her notice was in Commonwealth Death notices.

I am stuck at this point,did have some addresses in Norich. Addresses are 48 Stafford St, 52 Winter Road and 34 Hotblack Road.I presume these addresses were current in the 1940 as I have photos of my dad there during the war when he was in the RCAF,with the address written on back of the photos.

Hope this will help to find more info,

Thanks, Don Hunt

1891 census has him as Alfred F Hunt, Middle name Frederick as per 1869 marriage. He is still alive in 1911 at one of the addresses you have given.

Could this be Ellens death  :-\
March qtr 1934   
Ellen Hunt age 88
Norwich reg dist    4b   136

There are still some family at the 1911 address prior to WW2.  I am afraid we can't give details of the 1939 register either.

Thinking about it ....no.  As you said he was still alive in WW2!

Travellers dates are a little mixed up, I think Dons means age 45 in 1891 Census.

I think the 1927 Death Reg you have posted Liz is a possible.
