The Common Room / Death Certificates
« on: Tuesday 07 July 09 15:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

Sadly, a member within my family tree took their own life some years ago.

Upon purchasing this certificate, I have been informed that between the actual death and the issuing of the death certificate, there is an eleven month gap due to what seems to me to be a late inquest.

I have always been informed that a death certificate is required before a person can be buried, however I know that said family member was buried about a week after their death.

Can anyone inform me of how burial is achieved without the presence of a death certificate?

Thanking you all in advance.

Kind regards,
Sgt Tollers

The Common Room / "Boy's W.H."
« on: Tuesday 02 June 09 11:16 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

I recently found the school record for my great grandfather.

Upon reason for leaving his school, it says 'gone to boy's W.H.'.

I can only think that the W.H. could stand for workhouse.

Can anyone else offer what these initials could stand for?

Thanking you kindly,
Sgt Tollers

Ho ho ho  :)

Can anyone tell me where the christening and school records are held for such places as St. Silas Church, St. Andrew's Church, St. John's Church Newington, Lincoln Street School and Craven Street School? Would these be held at Beverley or elsewhere?

Thanking you all in advance.

Best wishes,

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Gravestone Inscriptions for Northern Cemetery
« on: Wednesday 26 November 08 19:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

In the Local Studies Library in Hull City Centre, I'm aware that they have books relating to the inscriptions on the gravestone in nearly all of the cemeteries, but for some reason, Northern Cemetery is not included. Does anyone know why and if there is a book out there for these also?

Kind regards,

Hi,

Does anyone have any information on the above mentioned eg. names linked to this gang?

I have found a mention of them linked to a dock murder, but have no further details.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Flag Square, Green Lane?
« on: Sunday 21 September 08 11:55 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to find the address of Flag Square, Green Lane on either the 1861 or 1871 census.

An Emma Bell of this address registers the deaths of both my great great great grandfather and his wife's young daughter in 1867 and 1869 respectively and I wish to know what her relationship to the family is.

I have tried doing an address search in 1881, but all to no avail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Sgt Tollers

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Drypool or Marfleet?
« on: Sunday 13 May 07 19:15 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone,

If you were born at the old maternity hospital which once stood on Hedon Road, which registration district would it have fallen under - Drypool or Marfleet?

Will appreciate any response on this.

Thank you!

My great grandmother was working as an assistant at Whites Sugar Factory in 1901. Does anyone know where this place stood? My great grandmother at the time was living at 6 Green Lane, Sculcoates.

Any help would be appreciated.
