Suffolk / Mary Moss SKELTON
« on: Friday 24 September 10 10:53 BST (UK)  »
Have anybody heard of the above name

All I know is she was born 1824 and died 1893, she was buried in St Edmunds churchyard in Southwold Suffolk.

I found this name in a bible I was given and would like to know more about her and what is the conection (The bible was a gift from her in 1861 but I don't know either who the bible belonged to)

I have found her grave stone on-line, but cannot find birth, marriage. I don't know if the Moss part is a christion name or surname

1876 John Brooks blacksmith, died of Phthisis  aged 56

I have a death certificate stating place of death as Green Villa Castleton Moor,

registration district Rochdale, as he was not living with his wife in 1871  She

was living in Bury and Heap. I wondered if this could be a sanatorium

 or hospital, although could be an address of where he was living,

His son was a witness to his death

I made a mistake with Saint Clements, it was where daughter Elizabeth was living at time of marriage

The Wittington pub is too early as Elizabeth was only app 23 at the time, according to wedding cert

That leaves either of the other 2 pubs, and I think I shall check the IGI as it is St Clements, so easy to check

Many thanks for all the help

Sorry all I had was publican on his daughters wedding certificate, if the last answer was right he changed from a school master in 1841 to a publican in 1843, is that likely?
