Was she the daughter of Richard & Mary?

1861 age 19 unmarried living with parents and siblings in Yorkshire

Interestingly there is a George Wilson 15 lodger from Notts on the same page

Yes that's her. I hadn't read further down the page, but the George I have was born in 1834, so it may just be coincidence..

However a distant relative is insistent that I have the wrong Susannah as she has her dying in 1866, unmarried.

Do you know if she has the death certificate?  If so was the informant a family member?

That might help prove it one way or the other.

No she doesn't, she is just questioning entries in my tree that she believes to be wrong.

Family History Beginners Board / Struggling to find a marriage entry
« on: Monday 17 May 21 16:05 BST (UK)  »
My 2nd Great Aunt was Susannah Ellis, 1841(Retford, Nottinghamshire-1898 (Dewsbury, West Yorkshire),who I'm lead to believe was married to a George Wilson.

I have the appropriate names in censuses dating from 1851 to 1901, when Susannah is absent, matching up with the death I have for her in 1898.

However a distant relative is insistent that I have the wrong Susannah as she has her dying in 1866, unmarried. I have given her the information I have, including the entry of her death, but she now has me wondering if I do have the wrong Susannah, as I can find no record of her marriage.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Thank you so much. I've put her name in so many search boxes without any luck. I'm obviously searching the wrong places. Now I just have to find her husband!

Cork / Death certificates online?
« on: Friday 09 April 21 15:27 BST (UK)  »
Am I able to view a full death certificate online, or do I have to pay the 20 euro to get one from GRO?

My ancestor's details are as below, showing the volume and page number, but can't find anything else. She was born Elizabeth Flynn, but clearly went all her life by Betty.

Name:   Betty Flynn
Estimated Birth Year:   abt 1783
Date of Registration:   Jan-Feb-Mar 1879
Death Age:   96
Registration District:   Mallow
Volume:   5
Page:   456

I'm still struggling with the fact that she died age 96 in Mallow workhouse. Seems a very advanced age for that time.

Also I'm guessing she would have been buried in the workhouse graveyard, but a search doesn't bring anything up.

Thank you. The information about Mallow workhouse is very interesting.

Do you think they would have kept burial records? I see the Mallow General Hospital was built on the grounds of the workhouse, so they may not have preserved the burial ground.

Cork / Workhouse deaths in Ireland
« on: Thursday 08 April 21 16:23 BST (UK)  »
My 4th great grandmother Elizabeth (Betty) Flynn (Flinn) nee Alton, died on 16th February 1869 in the workhouse at Mallow, Cork.

She was born around 1783. She had a son John born around 1810 who married Mary Timblan (1800-1870).

I can't find any trace of her husband, or find her in a census, and I can't find any record of her burial. I appreciate records aren't available online for birth and baptism that early, also bearing in mind she died in the workhouse, would she have had a proper burial?

Any help or information would be appreciated as I'm having a nightmare with Irish records.  ::)

Thanks
Dee

Annoying, but yes it is looking that way. Irish records seem so difficult to find and when I do, I can't read half of them, and I was top of the class at Latin!

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
