Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Cause of death on death certificate
« on: Saturday 05 October 19 18:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi there,

I was wondering if someone could be so kind as to help me decipher a cause of death. I can see it was Intracranial, but completely at a loss for what the rest of the entry says.

I do hope someone can help me.

Many Thanks

Tim.

Somerset / Burial for Susanna(h) Priscott - nee Winsborough
« on: Sunday 11 August 19 23:54 BST (UK)  »
Hj there,

I have a John Priscott b 1761 in Cutcombe. He married thrice, once to Jane Hole in 1803 (she died a year later), second to a Susanna(h) Winsborough in 1807, and thirdly to Ann Widlake in 1815.

I can not seem to find a death or burial for Susanna(h). Or an alternative marriage for that matter. I believe she was baptised in Brompton Regis in 1785, to Richard and Katherine.

Can anyone help me track down Susanna(h) after giving birth to her last child Ann Priscott in 1814.

Many Thanks.

Tim.

Surrey / The Everest Missing Parent
« on: Friday 09 August 19 13:24 BST (UK)  »
Hi there,

I am hoping you can help me with finding the death of a parent inbetween 2 census returns.

I have an Emily Everest, whom in the 1911 census is looking after her 7 siblings with no parents present. She is 21 on the census and born in Lingfield, Surrey. Her siblings are Leonard, Percy, Doris, Ernest, Sydney and May.

In 1901 I can see both of her parents; William Everest b1860 Lingfield, and Alice Grant b1867 in East Grinstead.

It seems William Everest passed away in 1907 - Godstone, Surrey. But i can not find a death record for his wife Alice between census.

Can anyone help me track her down?

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / When did Frederick Ledger Oliver pass away?
« on: Sunday 10 December 17 12:07 GMT (UK)  »
I am back here for some help after discovering my previous thought for the death date of an ancestor has turned out to be wrong.

There are two Frederick Oliver's registered in the first quarter of 1911, Hull/Sculcoates. The one in bold is my ancestor

Births Mar 1911
Oliver    Frederick        Hull 9d, 291    
Oliver    Frederick L    Sculcoates 9d, 210    

To be completely sure this was him i ordered the PDF of his birth certificate, which gave me the correct parents and said his birth date was 27th November 2010.

I had previously thought this was my ancestor...

Frederick Oliver b 1 Jan 1911 death registered Feb 1988 age 77, Hull RD
Volume: 7 Page:   830

Because of the fact that, one, his birthdate is incorrect now; and two, the 1939 register shows this particular Frederick Oliver with a completely different wife. I am now positive that the previous death date i had was incorrect. (I also have found the correct Frederick Oliver on the 1939 register)

The problem is, i now have no idea when he passed away.

He married his wife Ivy L Hutchinson in 1935, Sculcoates. He is on the 1939 register with her and his daughter (who only passed away in 2010) as a closed record. His daughter was born in 1936.

So all i know is he was alive in 1939, with no more details after that. Can anyone help?

London and Middlesex / Finding a death date for Mary Ann Waite b1855 Harlington, London
« on: Wednesday 15 November 17 13:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there,

After such a successful search on my previous post i am hoping you can all help me with another one. I am looking for a death date/registration for the following person;

Mary Ann Waite (nee Jolly) b1855 Harlington

Parents;
Thomas Jolly b1819 in Weeley, Essex
Elizabet Stevens b1825 in Chelsea

Spouse;
Charles John Samuel Waite
b1855 in Royston, Cambridgeshire

The last time she shows up on the census is the last available one (which i know we are not allowed to discuss.) Her husband doesn't pass away until 1933 in Southwark. But i can not seem to find a death entry for her.

Can anyone help with this small mystery?

« on: Wednesday 15 November 17 09:30 GMT (UK)  »
Hi again,

Today i am searching for the death date for;

John Gallon
B: 04 SEP 1838 Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland


Parents;
Robert Gallon 1808-1876
Esther Selby 1807-1891

Spouse;
Sarah Ann Young b1836 in Hull, East Yorkshire

The last census i can see John Gallon on is the 1871 census with his family. in 1881 Sarah is still listed as married but without John at 45 Glasgow St. After that i can't seem to find John anywhere, including for death entries. Sarah passes away in 1915 in Sculcoates, East Yorkshire.

Many Thanks.
