Frank Ancill 1877 to 1921?

[leamingtonian]

Help needed in locating date of death & location for the above but not to be confused with Frank Ansell/Ancell.
Frank Ancill was born in Elmdon Heath, Warwickshire in 1877, son of Charles Henry Ancill & Mary Shellar Brown. In 1911 he was living in Coventry and had two daughters, Winifred Joyce & Phylis Irene. Winifred married Percy Towler in 1922 and her marriage certificate shows Frank as 'Deceased'. The same is shown on Phylis's certificate in 1925. I don't have access to the 1921 Census so am unable to see if he is still alive in 1921. That info would be ideal as would his date of death.

Thanks for help in advance

Do you know when his wife passed away? 
Does she appear on the 1939 register, if so was she married or widowed?

Or was Frank already widowed in 1911?

I don't have access to the 1921 Census so am unable to see if he is still alive in 1921. That info would be ideal as would his date of death.

Have you tried doing a free search to see if you can locate him in 1921, we are not allowed to do lookups on that data base

The 1921 census is available on a pay per view basis on FindMyPast.  Rootschat does not allow details other than what is available on the free index

In 1911 he was living in Coventry with wife & daughters. Wife Annie, nee Arthur, died in 1948 in Middlesex. She remarried in 1928, Henry William Goodwin, and in 1939 living in Ealing, Middx.
Wasn't aware that I could do a free 1921 search so here goes

Death date does not support daughters marriage cert

Frank Ancill born 1877 died Dec qtr 1927 West Bromwich 6b 745 aged 50

No other birth for a Frank Ancill 1876-1878

Name   Frank Ancill
Registration Date   1877
Quarter of the Year   Jan-Feb-Mar
Registration Place   Solihull, Warwickshire, England
Volume   6d
Page   631

The above is the info that I have for Frank. Both marriage certificates clearly show Frank Ancill is deceased. Winifred's baptism records have been transcribed as ANCELL but is clearly ANCILL which is a common problem.

Re the 1927 death I  posted - the point I was making is that there is no other birth for a Frank Ancill anywhere  between 1876-1878 which made the 1927 death more possible. Particularly given the location

As wife remarried the following year in Middlesex - could they have been separated?

A tree on Ancestry also has that death
