Staffordshire / William Bentley Pot Sinker Hednesford
« on: Friday 19 October 12 21:47 BST (UK) »
I hope someone can help me and my mum.
We are looking for a death of William Bentley, who died on 8th May, 1874 at Hednesford, aged 28 yrs. He was a pit sinker, he died of intercussession of urine, and W Kirby was present at his death.
He is my great x3 grandfather, at the time, it is believed he had 3 sons (my great x2 grandfather being one of them), and that a year after he died, his widow Susan Cook(e) remarried, and the same W. Kirby was a witness at her wedding. From this marriage, a further 2 children were born.
Many thanks
