Hello,
I live in Canada and am having a difficult time finding an obituary for Dora Maretta Norris Mitchell who died in a nursing home in Swainswick Gardens, Bath, in Sept 1995. She was 80 years old and died intestate, so not much info there.  Her usual residence was Frampton Cotterell, Avon.

I’d be very grateful if some kind person could either look up a copy for me or give me an idea of a resource to contact.

Thank you

Hello,
I live in Canada and having a difficult time finding an obituary for Roy de-Lorraine Mitchell who died in Bournemouth in June 1969. Roy was an estate agent who owned Mitchell Estate Agents in Highcliffe. His will finally arrived this week but it was very short and did not give much information.

I’d be very grateful if some kind person could either look up a copy for me or give me an idea of a resource to contact.

Thank you

Dorset Lookup Requests / 1969 Obituary Bournemouth - MITCHELL, Roy de-lorraine
« on: Tuesday 15 July 14 07:14 BST (UK)  »
Hello. My father was a Home Child sent to Canada in 1924. I’m trying to find living relatives of his father, Edwin Wheeler.
Roy de-Lorrainne MITCHELL, estate agent, who died June 1969  in Bournemouth, was my father’s cousin. I think this was the Roy Mitchell who founded Mitchell Estate Agents, 77 Poole Road, Bournemouth. I’ve not been able to find an obituary or will to confirm this or the location of any of Roy M and Dora Norris’ children. Their children may have been (not confirmed) (*).
Thanks for any help,
Barb, from BC, Canada

Somerset Lookup Requests / Bath, Somerset - WHEELER 1901 and 1912 Addresses
« on: Sunday 29 June 14 04:50 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
Edwin Wheeler (bd1886) and sister Lilian Maud (bd1888) were orphaned in 1892. They may have been placed in the workhouse. 1901 Census has Edwin living at Highbury House, Bath, St Saviour's parish, Walcot, with several other boys. Would this be one of Bath's Scattered Homes?

Also, in 1912, Edwin gave the address 2 Malcombe Rd, Durley Park, Bath as his last residence. Then he died. I am hoping this was his sister Lily's address.
Is Melcombe Rd, Durley Park, Bath still standing and how would I find who lived there in 1912?

Thanks for any help,
Barb, BC, Canada
