Place of death

[kay727]

On the burial record my great grandmothers address is listed as 33 Tusmore street Rotherham, yet her family home where her spouse and children live is in chapel street. Is there any way to find out who the occupiers of 33 Tusmore street were in September 1919, whether they were family etc?

If you're on Ancestry you could look at the 1911 census and the 1939 Register? Have you looked for the local workhouse also, as that would possibly be the only hospital available to ordinary working families pre-NHS.

I looked at census in records office, but names don t tie into family at all, perhaps the occupants had changed by 1919, by 1939 the family are gone from chapel street to fitzwilliam road. Thanks for trying.

My family member moved from Wigan to Rotherham in 1911, and was in chapel street. She died in 1919, six weeks after her 4 year old accidentally drowned. We have no connection to owtrums, though believe they had connection to funerals, perhaps burial records were an error. I can't see why she would die in a residence in tusmore street, when she lived in chapel street. Thank you all.
