Staffordshire / Tipton Magistrates Court ?

« on: Friday 27 April 12 17:22 BST (UK) »

Hi All
Today i received my G Grandfathers Death cert and it has turned up a bit of a mystery the cert says [ When and where died] 11th June 1876 No 1 Court, Sanders Building, Sheepwash Lane, Tipton [Name and surname] William O'BOYLE [Cause of Death] Natural Causes [Age]76.
So it seems my G Grandfather died whilst attending court [ Either as a Defendant or Witness i presume ]
Would anyone know where i might find more information from.
Regards
Fred O'Boyle

Any census info on his parents would be a great help

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / West Midlands BMD'S

« on: Saturday 17 September 11 11:35 BST (UK) »

hi
I was wondering if someone can help with a small problem on the West Midlands BMD site i have found death entries for 1853 ;
O'Boyle David Tipton
O'Boyle Mary Tipton
O'Boyle Richard Tipton
O'Boyle William Tipton
Would anyone have access to information about West Midlands BMD'S as i think mary may be the wife of a William O'Boyle [ b 1815 ]
it looks like richard and william were born in 1853 so they either died at birth or shortly after.
I am going to apply for a Death Cert for Mary but i thought i would try looking on here first as i've had some wonderful help from lots of different people on here
Regards
