Hello

I am hoping someone may be able to help me find information on an inquest held in Nottingham on 24th Jan 1907 and 7 Feb 1907. for two children.

The Lee family suffered a double tragedy when two of their children died. Robert Lee b 23 Nov 1905  was buried 26 Jan 1907 at Averham   near Newark Nottinghamshire.
On his sisters death cert  it says Grace Emily Lee age 14 months died 24 Jan 1907 due to Ptomaine poisoning ( Food poisoning) . She was buried on the same day as her brother ( i don't have his death cert but its highly likely it is the same cause) .
Any information about this tragedy would be appreciated.

Thank You .

Hello
I am not sure which board this should be on --hope this one is  ok.
Minnie May White is shown on the 1901 census for Hessle Yorkshire as a 20 year old servant born Runcorn.
From the 1939 Return a DOB of 29 May 1891 is given. However I cannot  find an entry for that date on the GRO indexes. ( She died 1970 in Nottinghamshire)

On 12 Aug 1911 she marries Joseph Dunbabin ( b 18/4/1884) a Navy Ganger in Scotland. Wedding at St Peters Epizerpal church Inverkeithing . Record on Scotland's People.  Her address is given as Hessle Yorkshire which ties in with the 1911 census return. No trace of her on a 1901 return. Her marriage record
 shows the parents of Minnie as Thomas White a Navy Ganger and mother a Jane White nee Sharp.
One of the witnesses was a Rose White who could be a sister . The other witness was a William Hodgkinson.
from searching on line there is a possible marriage of a Thomas White and Jane Sharp in 1883  in Stockton Durham . If correct possible there were a number of children by 1891 when Minnie is born.
I have been unable to find Rose Whites birth.

I would appreciate help in finding Thomas ,jane and Rose and any records.(I can trace Minnie and Joseph forward )
At a loss  as to why i can not find any records for her parents.
thank You .

hello
I am trying to trace the marriage of Richard Lee 1770-1851 born Averham and his wife  Mary ( surname unknown). Richard is the son of John Lee and Elizabeth(Mayfield). I have been using the Free Parish Register records for Averham.

Richard was baptised 30 June 1770 . He is on the Averham census for 1841 with Mary. She was buried 16 Feb 1842 averham.

Richard is on the 1851 census with his son Robert (a widower) and Richards grandchildren.
As no marriage is listed for Richard in Averham  as was traditional he will have married in he brides parish but I don't have that information.
Richard and Mary had at least 3 sons

There are some trees on line that say Richard Married Catherine Smith on 13 april 1789 in Mansfield . Its of course possible he did and Mary was a second wife but I have not been able to establish whether he married twice .
I would appreciate any help in trying to find a marriage for Richard and Mary  and establishing if he did marry twice .
Many Thanks
