Berkshire / Walter Jennings Farey/Fairey/Fairy died 1856 Radley
« on: Sunday 24 March 24 04:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,
I have a Walter Jennings Farey baptised 31 Dec 1837 at St John's Hackney London to James (a coachman) and Mary Farey of Dalston. I then have him with his parents and numerous siblings in the 1841 Census in Charles Street West Hackney, and the 1851 Census at Elizabeth Place West Hackney. I haven't been able to locate him after this last for some time now.
Today I put his details into findmypast and came up with a death in 1856 at Radley Berkshire of Walter Jennings Fairy born 1838. Now this is pretty encouraging although I have no idea why he would be in Radley.
I checked this on freeBMD and got Walter Fairey died 9/1856 Abingdon (which includes Radley) Vol 2c p163. I then went to the GRO site to order an image and their search doesn't locate this death at all.
What I would like, if any-one can help, is any further details on the burial entry; find the GRO entry so I can order an image; or think of any reason why a poor 18yo lad from Dalston/Hackney would be so far from home in Radley Berkshire.
Cheers, Colin
