Can anyone tell me where abouts is bed 2. We are visiting there today it is where our sister and mother's ashes are scattered. We were unable to get to the office yesterday and cannot find a clear map online. Thanks

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: 1851/61 Census Look up, Lancashire (Bennison)
« on: Tuesday 11 January 22 18:16 GMT (UK)  »
Joseph Bennison and Hannah Scarrow are my  GGGGrandparents.

Frank Scarrow Bennison was baptised August 23rd 1826. His parents Joseph and Emily Ann Bennison nee Lee. They had 6 children  : Hannah Eliza (Lillie)1869 Ceylon, Alice Maud 1872 Ceylon, Joseph James lee (Lee) 1875 Ceylon, Frank Scarrow 1876 Chester, Percy John 1878 Chester, Helen Muriel 1886 Frankby, Chester.

I believe Emily Ann Lee met Joseph Bennison at her brothers marriage Thomas Lee to Ann Elizabeth Bennison in 1863.

I haven't found any William in this family.

If there is anything else I can help you with please let me know.

If you can give me a few days I will have a look for you. My mum died before Christmas and her funeral was only yesterday.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Query on Occupation on Death Certificate? 1864
« on: Thursday 07 January 21 18:43 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you for all your input, its interesting isn't it, how documents differ. Up until his death in 1891, he was registered on all the census as a Veterinary Surgeon.
Maybe he was that upset at his wife's death that it was easier to be a farrier?

Family History Beginners Board / Query on Occupation on Death Certificate? 1864
« on: Thursday 07 January 21 16:47 GMT (UK)  »
My 3x GGrandmother Hannah Procter nee May, died in 1864 of 'Softening of the brain, Paralysis, 12 months Certified'.
Her husband Thomas George Procter all through his life, on his marriage certificate and every census his occupation is 'Veterinary Surgeon'. 
So any thoughts on why on his wife's death certificate his occupation is 'Farrier'?

Oh wow, now I have choices  :o I love how you have all done if slightly differently to each other.
I must admit I presumed her dress would have been black but of course we probably wouldn't know, I thought her hat was rather grand for such a 'rotund' lady. But on closer inspection it seems her face is very round but she seems to have a small waist.
She dies 7th Sept 1864 aged 49, (I must send for her death certificate) Thomas her husband remarries 2 years later and that wife also dies aged 44??? He (Thomas) was a vet!!!! Do you think I should read anything into this???

Apologies for the confusion, this is amazing, I love it. With your dates and approx age we are gfairly certain it is my 3xGreat Grandmother. I showed it to my daughter who has seen the original plate and she was amazed to.
Really appreciate the work you have done, thank you
