Burial Lists for Berkshire
« on: Tuesday 18 October 05 10:37 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone would have the time to look up a name in the burial list for me.
I am looking for a Sidney Frank Rance born 25 February 1900.  This is all I know of this person.  I have just found him, he is the elder brother of my grandmother and neither myself or my mother have ever heard his name mentioned before.  I am wondering if he died young or if I have unearthed my first skeleton.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards

Hi Glorialee,

The only entry on the NBI is for a Sidney Herbert Rance who was buried in Sandhurst  Berkshire aged 41 on 11th January 1944.

It is obviously not your Sidney but you may like to keep this one on file in case he ties in with your tree somewhere.

Kind Regards,

Frances :)

Hi Frances

Thanks for looking that up for me.  The mystery thickens then for my point of view.  My grandmother never ever mentioned him, and always said she was the eldest of 4, when in fact she was the second eldest of 5, my mother was married on his birthday and again no reference to him was ever made.  More to the point my great aunt who was a little more forthcoming about family matters never mentioned him either!!  Well I'll just keep on digging around.

Many thanks
