Death of Martha Hopkins at Gildersome, York, between 1760 and 22 Jul 1770

[Westy11]

Martha Hopkins was wife to William Hopkins and they married 1754. 

I have located 3 children to the couple William, Zachariah and Thomas. They may also be a child Mary who died 8 Jan 1770.

Their son William died 22 Jul 1770 and his death certificate notes his mother was deceased so I am assuming she died somewhere between 1760 [birth of Thomas] and 1770 [death of William].

To date I have not located another marriage for William snr but expect it to be the case.

Can you give more clarity on this death certificate 1770    you state - As GRO death certificates did not start to July 1837 in England

Hi Dobfarm

They were Quakers and used death certificates for want of a better word. Records available from mid 1600's onwards.
