Death for Benjamin Bowman - COMPLETED

[groom]

Wetheral comes under Carlisle registration district and there is no Benjamin born between 1905 and 1908. It is possible that he was registered with another name but known as Benjamin, and  he then used that for the rest of his life.

I would have thought Benjamin and Elizabeth would have been on a electoral Roll in Carlisle, would this help in anyway?

I dont think so as we need to find his birth before we can look for his death really.
