obit look up for Kerswill/Kerswell 1870

[S.Sullivan]

I have info. about William Kerswill/Kerswell  who died    Feb. 18,1870  either in St. Thomas or Exeter.

There is suppose to be an obituary for him in the Western Times  Feb 25,1870 on page 8 & in the Exerter & Plymouth Gazette page 5

I was hoping that someone might be able to look this up for me.

Thanks  Sharon

Thank You.  I thought it may have mentioned a wife or some other family members

The 1871 census shows a William (74) & Jane (66) KERSWILL living at Pellow Building, Cowick Street, St Thomas - possible parents?

You can get a copy of the death certificate to see who reported it or was present at death.

It could prove useful

Thanks, but that is not their parents.  James & Anna Lugg Kerswill were the parents of  Mary , William born1836 Broad clyst, & James born 1839 born Broad clyst.  James & Anna were deceased by 1870.

I have info. on Mary & her family.  I thought that maybe the death of William would have been one of the children, but without anymore info. I am not sure.  I am still looking for James.   I have found them both on the 1841 & 1851 census.

You say the parents James and Anna were deceased by 1870. 

The children are with Herman Dug/Lugg 24 and Charlotte 21 in 1841 (they are brother and sister to Anna Lugg children's mother)
Mary Kerswell 6, William K 4, James K 2.

1851 they are with Loveday Lugg widow 73
Mary Kerswill 15, William 14, James 12

There is an Anna Kerswill death registered St. Thomas  1840 age 30 ( mother of the children?)

James Kerswill  death registered St. Thomas 1838 age 42 (father of the children?)
