Durham / Hunter Miller born 1852 - 1854/Hunter Miller 1855 - ?
« on: Tuesday 18 July 23 14:23 BST (UK)  »
Hi Rootschatters,

I'm trying to find the death record of the second Hunter Miller born in 1855.  His parents are William and Isabella Miller.  Isabella's maiden surname was also Miller.  Second one seems to have been named after  deceased sibling.  Both Hunter's born in Durham.

He appears on a 1861 and 1871 census but disappears after that.

If anyone can help because it's driving me mad...
Thanks in advance - Tab 11

Hi Rootschatters,
I've just discovered that my gggrandparents lost 3 children, they had 9 in total.  The first 5 were born in Tanfield between 1865 and 1876.  They had a sixth that was born in Lanchester in 1887 called John William SMITH.
I've tried looking on BMD but with the name Smith it throws up thousands of options.                     My Gggrandparents were called John SMith (1842) and Hannah Minto Grey..                                               I'm guessing the deceased children could have been born between 1876 and 1887 as there's a big gap there...
Any advice would be most welcome.
Thank you Tab 11

Hi Rootschatters,

I found that my above 4 x Ggrandfather left a will in 1836.  It is listed at Staffordshire, Diocese of Lichfield & Coventry Wills & Probate 1521 - 1860.   I found this on Find my Past but there wasn't an available image.

Can anyone advise how I would get a copy.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the info jaywit.  The letter says that his gravestone stands near the main entrance along with 20 smaller stones bearing the same name...

Hi Spendlove,

 I'm reading the info from a letter, which was written by a great uncle.

My ggrandfather's name was John COOPER 22/11/1815 - 3/11/1899 - I believe he lived at Sunny Hill House, Normanton....
