George Arthur WILLIAMS

[mckha489]

I have the death certificate of William Cherrington WILLIAMS

'If Issue Living, state number age and sex"  there is a dash!   So likely George Arthur is adopted as earlier suggested.
Does anyone know if there is there a way of using the BDM fiche to localise births for the date in question?


cause of death  Suppurating Sores, Neglect & want of food
occupation  Bootmaker

So perhaps he is not the W.C. Williams in these advertisements?

Although the first only appeared in March 1892 and the last was the 25th June (He died on the 24th). So the timing is perfect.

If they had no money for food.
How might  Henrietta have financed the trip back to England?   Thoughts welcomed!

The District Keys only provide the place & quarter in which the registration took place.

A companion to an elderly woman, a nanny/nursemaid to a family.  Just going by how some of the young ones came out, they had the trips paid by a family for them to look after the children etc.

Miaowing up the wrong tree most likely
