Yep - that's why I put them up as I found them, so you could find them again

Thanks again Debbie.  If you can find the death of Helen/Ellen Colton.......
Of course she could have remarried but she would still have had several children at home.  And of course that makes it very difficult!

Hi

I did have a look for Helen's death,  but I can't see it,  I am useing the free BMD indexes and they are less complete as you get to mor recent happenings,  it could be that it hasn't been transcribed on there yet.  The burials I have for Newbury only go up to 1890, 1900 and we know she was alive in 1901 so I am not sure I can help

Vikwinann,

Can't find the ref. now but George is there in 1851 father's name Arthur and I think it was Coulton.

Hi Abiam,
I had followed Debbie's transcription logic and found all of them, and the George COULTON IN 1851 but she got in first.
Success story. If you ever find a link between the Hungerford Buxeys and the Inkpen and Bucklebury ones do please let me know. I might get this in-law family joined up some day.
Yours
Vicwinann

Certainly will but as you say there are sooooooooo many!  Bit lie the Dobsons,

Ps I have been trawling the deaths on FindMyPast have found a possibility for Ellen in 1920 nearish age but in Steyning which is West Sussex.  What would she be doing there?  Who knows?

[Abiam2]

Just thought I'd let you know I have found Ellen Colton's death!  A long long trawl.
She died in the Dec 1/4 of 1939 in Newbury aged 85.
Remembering her two brothers lived into their 80's I persevered and there she is,
Regards,
Abiam
