Hi,
 Thanks for the quick reply Henry Rickhuss was 27 in 1917 and was
Married in Bridgnorth the same year . He survived the first WW
But I can't find his death. His father William and Mother Alice died around 1945 in Bridgnorth.

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you very much for replying so quick..

I've been looking for H Rickhuss and his death details for about 8 years, I had a glue that Staffordshire
was a connection. I know very little about how to trace family history so I was not sure if I was on the right lines.

The details I would like to be sure about is his death age and location and if possible where his grave is or how to locate it.

What I do know and what I have is his birth date, and his mother / father's also the date of is married. I have
his birth certificate and his marriage certificate which was Feb 1917 to Sarah Beddoes in Bridgnorth. I even have his WW1 medal card as Rickhuss is a very rare name so I can be fairly sure it is his medal card? I had an idea he may have become a policeman over staffordshire way after the war. I saw a birth certificate for one of his sons and it gave an occupation before and after WW1 as a Footman possible something to do with Morville Hall near Bridgnorth.

The last time he was seen was in 1945 in Bridgnorth in a pub so I am told?

You mention a volume and page number excuse me but how did you find that and where was it. You seem to have found information in a flash I had given up finding the details but saw this forum by chance.

I did buy time with Ancestry.com some years ago but as I remember because I knew nothing no dates etc just to find his married took me a long time.

Thanks
