London and Middlesex / Re: Thomas McDermott Date of Death and Burial

Hi Milliepede,  Intriguing isn't it!

His wife was Elizabeth (nee Webber) originally from West Worlington and a Devon farming family. She married Thomas in 1861 (against the approval of her family apparently) She was 56 in 1891 and is living with Thomas in East Ham (according to the census). I have not found either of them on the 1901 census either, but Thomas obviously survives her as he is a widower in 1911.

Thanks very much BumbleB!  I'll look that up. This ties in with a burial record for an Edward Dalton in Jan 1857. Although I am not sure if Roman Catholic's would be buried in the municipal burial ground.

London and Middlesex / Thomas McDermott Date of Death and Burial
« on: Monday 13 April 20 15:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I am wondering if anyone can help me or point me in the right direction please. I am researching my 2 x G Grandfather Thomas McDermott born in Kilkeeran, Roscommon in Ireland around 1829. Thomas joined the British Army in 1846 and served in India and Cape Colony before being discharged as a Chelsea out-pensioner in 1868. I am seeking information in relation to his death and burial. According to the 1911 census, he 82 years old and living with his daughter in East Ham, London, but I have not been able to nail down his date of death or location of his burial. He was a Roman Catholic so I am assuming it will in a local R.C Church, but I have failed to find a candidate match in the registry of deaths for around this time frame. Any help or advice gratefully received. Stephen

Hi Margaret, we appear to share a common ancestor, Edward Dalton is I believe my 4 x Great Grandfather.  I am a descendant of Cain Dalton. I have been trying to find out the next generation back and have had very little luck. You sound like you have a fair bit of information though.

Hi, I am new to the forum so forgive me if I am not asking in the right place :). I am seeking further information in relation to one Edward Dalton who i believe is my 4 x great grandfather.  I have confirmed my 3 x grandfather as Cain Dalton (an unusual name) has a father Edward whose profession is described as Cooper.  I think i have located Edward on the 1851 census and again on the 1841 census although the surname maybe miss-spelt as 'Daulton'. The 1841 census shows a lot of children (but no Cain). I'd like to confirm this is correct and also nail down a date of death for Edward. I am also very interested in attempting to track back to his parents. He was apparently born in Gibraltar in 1801 (described in 1851 census as British Subject) so I am wondering if his father was in the British Army or Royal Navy at the time?  However, I cannot find any trace of an Edward Dalton born in Gibraltar on any of the online resources I have checked. Any help or advice gratefully received.

Kind regards SRD17
