Thanks everyone.  Will look into obtaining a death certificate and take it from there.   I know NYC buried many stillborns and infants who only lived a day or two on Hart Island.

Hello everyone!  I am trying to find where my older sister, Doreen Ann Cullen, who was born in the Bronx NY at Morrisania Hospital on December 27, 1957 and died the same day, is buried.  My parents were told nothing as to what was done to her.  I need the to pointed in the right direction.  Thank you all in advance.

The Common Room / Hannah Pickthall

Hi.  I am trying to find the burial place of my great grandmother, Hannah Pickthall (born Jackson).  She was born about 1859 in Bacup, Lancashire, England and died by suicide in Southwark, London (jumped in front of a train) in 1895.  Her husband was James Wilson Pickthall.    Thank you

I did find a site which lists all the newspapers.  Joined and will purchase.   I'm also going to see if I can obtain his marriage certs from Derby and Hampshire.  They may help in finally determing his birth and parentage.  Thank you!

I just read the article.  Poor Hannah, poor May.  This is a part of the family history we never knew.

I have the marriage banns for my grandparents, Edith Haley-Whitely and Ralph Henry Pickthall, November 1919, Leeds Yorkshire.  James Wilson Pickthall is listed as deceased and was a contractor.  Did James change his age as time went on?  Don't know.  Trying to locate the banns from Hampshire for James and Hannah.  I love a mystery.

Thank all of you so much.  I know Hannah Jackson was my great grandmother and they were married in Hampshire.  She committed suicide in 1895 in St Olave Southwark London.  Mary Kenworthy would be my step great grandmother.  I think great grandfather was married to Hannah's sister, Elizabeth.  All the census reports I have looked at and my grandparent's marriage banns all point to James Wilson being born some time around 1853, so I'm ruling out John and Bridget as his parents.  Once again, thank you all so much.
