I have lots of information, but cannot find much on these ancestors.

Thank you MB.  Those finds do fit in with Ernest’s notes.  He mentions a sister who died around 1909, which would fit with Elizabeth May (Lizzie).

He has a 3year Old girl called Emma, who died in 1885, which fits with what you found.

My notes mention another boy, (not William) who was born on 1st May of an unknown year and died in an unknown year.

It’s great to see so much of what Ernest wrote match up with what you’ve found.   Ernest said he could not trace many of these relatives. He only had this information from his mother, who had moved to London years earlier and didn’t speak much about her family. 
    Thank you for your help. 🙋🏻‍♀️
I will go and print off lots of snippets of newspapers now. ☺️

I have her year of death as 1899. She was only 51/52.  Ernest reports she looked much older than her years. He saw her as a toddler, but couldn’t remember much. He has photos of her in 1959.

I have all the details for her death certificate.  I will order it soon and if it contains anything particularly interesting I will post an update here ☺️

Oo, lovely find Keyboard86.  I’ll check that out. It looks more and more like they are ‘right’.  That would be another generation back.

Yes. I have the date Fri 14th Aug 1898 for Thomas’ death.  So that is very close.

The 14 Aug 1898 was a Sunday, whereas the 19 Aug was a Friday.  Looks like the 14th you have in the notes was a mistranscription and 19th matches the day you have.

Well spotted Alpinecottage, thank you. I’ll order the death certificates soon. It will be interesting to see if his missing leg is mentioned.
