I am trying to find a dod for a Martha Gunn, she was born in India also married there. She married Thomas Porteous Nathaniel, 20/5/1851, India, her husband died 1/10/1899, Richmond Terrace, Cambuslang. I have done some searching on s/p also in Register House.

In censuses does her age vary widely, and birth from 1833 to 1847, and beyond?

Hi,

Martha Nathaniel appears on the 1901 Census in Cambuslang - her age is 67.

There is a death in Salford, England in June 1904 of a 70 year old Martha Nathaniel on www.freebmd.org.uk.

Looby :)

Thank you for the information, I am going to get in contact with the West Lothian Council, hopefully they will help me regarding the burial place for Martha. Her husband died 1/10/1899, Richmond Terrace, Cambuslang. I do have another request it is for a John Nathaniel, it could is Thomas and Martha's son, he died 5/5/1884, in Bathgate. He might have been born in India, he had 9 siblings, Charles was born in India born 1852, then is was Thomas P Nathaniel 1857, Lanarkshire.

This isn't too clear re 'another request'?. Do you have the death cert. from SP for John's death 1884 as it should name both parents if known to informant?

I'm unsure what other info. you're seeking?

Trying to find his dob, on his death certificate it states that Thomas and Martha were his parents.
