Catherine Urquhart , Trying to trace her beyond 1911 and until death .

[RayRob]

In  searching for my grand/great aunt , beyond 1911 ,  I seem to have exhausted all avenues .
In case there is still an avenue to explore I am passing on my information in the hope that someone on RootsChat may come up with something .
I have spent time and money searching Scotlands People to no avail, trying to find a death record or even a marriage record for Catherine Urquhart.
The information I have is as follows :

If you can't find a marriage or death in Scotland - perhaps she moved elsewhere

Thank-you , Carole

I see that www.freebmd.org.uk  also has :

Deaths March 1941 , Catherine Urquhart , age 68 , Ilford , Essex    4a 751 Urquhart , Catherine

This Catherine Urquhart seems likely to be the person who is shown in the 1939 Register :
12 06  Urquhart , Catherine  , age 72 , single  ,  incapacitated .
Address is " Special 1 " , whatever that means ?
I wonder if she was a patient in a mental hospital in Ilford , Essex ?

I also wonder whether there are any accessible records that would point to this patient's date and place of birth plus name of parent/parents ?

This Catherine Urquhart seems likely to be the person who is shown in the 1939 Register :
12 06  Urquhart , Catherine  , age 72 , single  ,  incapacitated .

Not so.

It says that she was born in '72, exact date unknown.

1206 is the number of the line in the book on which she is recorded.

[CaroleW]

The 1939 entry you found died March qtr 1941 Essex

[RayRob]

Apparently a Death Certificate for a 1941  England death will contain :

When and where a person died.
Their age.
Their occupation.
The cause of death.
Details of the informant.

No mention of place of birth
No mention of parents .

That being the case there would seem to be no hope of my Scottish-born relative being identifird !
