Wonder who the Eliza, widow, that Registered his death was.

Have added a bit more to reply #8 and didn't get red notice that you'd posted. Perhaps William & Eliza weren't actually married (and that's why we can't find her after his death). Valuations might shed light on things?

William Lucy, dealer, Enniskillen, age 50, widower, son of Andrew (dec.) married 1869 in Newry to an Elizabeth Johnston (age 30)!

Added- William Lucy & Sarah (nee Robinson) had at least 1 child born after 1871 so she wasn't his first wife.

At least it shows that the two names I posted are only on same page! Not married to each other...

I quite fancy these as William's first wife and child-
Jane Lucy, married, age 30, died 25 June 1865 Castle St., Enniskillen

William John Lucy, age under 1 yr., died 15 May 1865 Pigmarket, Enniskillen

The poster is looking for William Lucy born 1839 in Enniskillen and says on his marriage certificate that his father was called William Lucy as well and was a gentleman but doesn't say Who he Married or Where!

One could waste hours looking, only to be told  "Oh No, he married in Oz".....

We haven't really been told much but there might be conflicting details on previous topics of the OP?

Can anyone help with information about my great great great grandfather William Lucy? He was an inland revenue officer in Cornwall in 1867 aged 28 and his occupation is listed as excise officer in 1871, still in Cornwall.  In 1881 he is a supervisor of inland revenue in Herefordshire. I can't access many records as I live in Sydney Australia. Any help would be much appreciated!

and
Hi William
I'm trying to find out information about my great great great grandfather William Lucy whose son, William, was born in Enniskillen in about 1839.  If you have any ideas, please let me know.
Kind regards
Juliet.
