Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Meaning of 7 Months Certified?
« on: Friday 04 May 18 16:54 BST (UK)  »
Hello

Can you please help?

I've just received my very first Death Certificate from GRO and a little confused as to the cause of death?

It states "Consumption" which i understand BUT it below says "7 Months Certified"?
What does the 7 Months Certified mean? Here's an image :



Many thanks

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Workhouse Initials Help Please :)
« on: Sunday 01 January 17 20:05 GMT (UK)  »
Hello and Happy New Year to all  :)

Can i please ask for a little help deciphering some of the initials on this Workhouse Admission.
Location : Date : 1855, Bethnal Green, Middlesex / London.

I've underlined the initials in Red which i'm finding difficult.





Also, It show's James(48) William(15) and George(7).
It says next to William & George that Father is in ?? and Mother is in ??
Would i be correct in saying that James is not the father as the childrens
parents seem to be already admitted? However on the discharge for James
it says Discharged Himself, Wife & Children?
You can guess i'm a newbie!

Thank you  :)

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Newbie confused by writing :(

Hello! confused newbie here  :-\

I've been trying to decipher this simple Poor Removal Record entry but stuck on a couple of things, can anyone please help?

SORRY, this image is a bit wide for the screen to show in full, will need to Right Click Save Image to view in full :



This is my current reading with the question marks in areas which i just cannot read :

"Bean Mary 23 - married at St.Matthias 5 years ago (BG) to Jospeh Bean 23 Glass Blower, she has a child by another man (name Sarah born at 4 Hollywell Lane Shoreditch) his name is George Darling - ?? father ??bean 3 Popes Head Court quaker street must be exam(examined?) states she thinks he belongs to ??

1. I'm guessing BG means By God?
2. The ?? before father looks to be Husband?
3. The initials before bean ??Bean should read James but i'm not seeing that?
James was the father of Joseph as seen in marriage certificate.
4. I'm guessing Exam means Examined?
5. The part after think he belongs to ?? looks like Spitalfields?

Thanks in advance for hel and Happy New Year  :D
