Thanks I appreciate your efforts. Acc to National Archives the registration of those deaths was kept locally and never reported back to GRO in the UK. There is however all the pertinent info on the local certificate.  I suspect the informant was her husband Alfred who simply did not know who her father was and had probably forgotten the entry on the marriage cert 50 years before.

There is a death of Joseph Setter at Varna Bulgaria during the Crimean War. Varna was a hospital point for troops and there was an outbreak of cholera there. Theres no proof its her father apart from he was a deceased soldier on her marriage cert. Yet on a Canada census he was Italian. On another English.

What I really need is her birth record......

I have her immigration to Canada 1871, its in the spreadsheet. She came with husband and daughter

The Toronto Star obituary is in the spreadsheet. Believe me I  looked high and low in UK parish and GRO for her birth in 1849. The closest is Totnes but it doesn’t match with later census and there is a marriage for the same name there later.

Im trying again with this which is probably the biggest dead end in my tree. She was my 2nd Great Grandmother and emigrated to Toronto in 1871. Ive attached an excel with what I know about her. What I never found is a birth record or firm details of her father or mother. Any help greatly appreciated

There’s a little bit about Nalson in the Visitation of Yorkshire 1612 under Flower. Also the Thoresby Sc did a paper called The Nalsons of Methley and Altofts. Hope this helps. I’m actively researching Flower, Nalson and Shann if you’d like to swop notes

I can see the original marriage entry via FindMyPast - look either for James HOLM or Esther Beard.  Neither signed the register, BUT there is no indication of which church, other than the transcription which says Sheffield Cathedral.

Thanks Id seen that
