Thanks Jan57 & Nanny Jan
I am the proud owner of two death certificates so far for John Thompson, and neither one is my guy.
So, before I invest again I am trying to figure out if he was still alive in 1911.
He always listed his place of birth (Leek Staffordshire) and occupation (silk weaver) and never changed them. And even his birth year of 1831 or equivalent age have been consistent.
so if I can a John fitting these on the 1911 or somewhere then it would make it easier to narrow down when he died.
I am not even sure if he died in Wanstead at the Almshouse or not.
I have tried to find info on the Weaver Almshouses but have come up empty there too.
Thanks again
