Did you, perhaps, put the wrong page number and get William's death certificate instead of Jane's?

But you said the death certificate states that he's a widower and gives his occupation, that doesn't sound like a female's death certificate.
Or am I confused?

You may have got the wrong death, there is also this one between 1851-1861.

yes you are
i said this incorrect certificate stated that i was pointing out that my williams occ was a mariner

David

David Report 15 Dec 2010 14:34

mac
that could be her
at one time u could when ordering certs from southport online ask for ref check can you still do that
where did you find that death

mac

mac Report 15 Dec 2010 14:38

On Freebmd - it costs nothing, but it is always worth checking the original image as they sometimes mis-transcribe the reference. In this case they haven't.

You can still get a reference check, but your previous certificate was the right one for that death, I checked that reference as well - I think you simply chose the wrong death.

Just had a thought.......William may not be going to sea anymore and gone back to a trade he had when young of Shoemaker????

Don't forget most people in those years could'nt read or write or even celbrate birthdays. Most of them could'nt remember when they were born!! and it's only the info they are given at the time of death that is written down.

Let us know please David when you get the new death cert.

mac Report 15 Dec 2010 14:54

William had already died by then - she was a widow on th 1851 census. His death is probably this one (only one in the 10 year period), I think it's the age that proves the certificate David has is the wrong one.
