Lancashire Lookup Requests / Blackburn and Darwen Cemetery
« on: Saturday 23 March 24 15:42 GMT (UK)  »
Hello  :)

Is there anyone who is willing to take photographs of my familiy graves in both of the above Cemeteries ? I have grave numbers and I can also ask for help from the relevant offices in finding the graves.

I live in Denmark so it is not exactly just around the corner.

Many thanks  :)

Hello  :)

I have a death cert that I am having problems reading the cause of death, certainly is seems to be premature labour however there is something that looks like "SynCore" underneath. Can anyone help please.

Regards from a very cold and windy Denmark.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / William Pollit Blackburn
« on: Sunday 11 February 24 14:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I am afraid I am rather tearing my hair out, I live in Denmark so online research is my only option in the main. I am trying to find a confirmed Birth and Death date for

William Pollit born 1851 in Blackburn, Lancashire.

Facts
1851

Birth
1851 • Blackburn, Lancashire, England
2 sources


Marriage
18 August 1881 • Padiham, Lancashire, England

Susannah Smith
(1855–1918)


1891
40

Residence
1891 • Padiham, Padiham, Padiham, Lancashire, England


He turns up on the 1891 census.
He is married to my paternal 2nd Grandmother but appears to disappear of the radar in 1891.

Paternal Grandmother ( Susanah Smith )marries again in 1898, for the 3rd time.

I cant seem to find anything for him and it is his family that is of great interest.

Any help would be gladly received.

From a freezing cold Denmark, good afternoon.

Hi all,

Greetings from a rather wet and windy Denmark

My question is, is there any way I can look up obituries and other items such a marriage announcements etc online in the local newspapers of Blackburn or any other area from the 1900,s onwards.  I am aware that I can access the British newspapers with my library number but this is only up til 1900 and the nearest newspaper ares is preston .....  I am coming to Blackburn in October so would be able to use the library then but am hoping I do not have to wait that long......

Any ideas or suggestions would be gratefully recived.
