Hi,

If someone died in Prison around 1901 would their death still be entered in BMD records?

I have found a relative who was an inmate in Staffordshire Prison in 1901 for fraud deception & theft. She had already served time doing hard labour but was deemed to be so ill she couldn't stand further trial, but the records do not state what then happened to her. I obtained this information from the original records at Stafford records office. I'm guessing she possible died shortly afterwards but cannot find any record of her death. She doesn't appear in 1911 census it like she just disappears.

Can someone tell me if a Prisoner in 1901 died in Prison would their death still be in the BMD registers?

I found a relative in 1901 in Staffordshire Prison and viewed their records at the records office. They stated she wasn't fit for trial, it doesn't however tell me what then happened to her. I can find no death record for her and she doesn't appear in the 1911 Census so presumably had died.

Any help appreciated.

Susanna Thompson abt 1859-1861 ( varies on Census returns) lived in Oldbury West Bromwich.

Hi everyone,

Please could someone tell me how I can search for a death that has taken place in the last two years. Unfortunately I only have a name,date of birth & possible area,  the genealogy site I belong to only searches up to 2005!

Thanks - Joe
