Find Ancestors

Hi
I am trying to trace Isaac Bendall 1857 -1898, he is my great grandfather, I am not sure if i have his right death date, I wold like to try and find out how and where he died, can anyone help me please

Hello Valerie, can you tell us where he was from, who he was married to and which of his children you are descended from?

Would this have been his marriage?

Valerie, why do you think this may not be the correct death date?

That death seems to be borne out by Margaret being a widow on the 1901 census

Freda is in Valerie's tree on here, so she is aware of this birth.

She asked to find out how and where Isaac died.

I guess the birth of Freda was throwing doubt on the 1898 death ,

Margaret though is a widow on the 1901 census so the death cert detail of 1898 is him

For more info you need to buy the cert

Valerie

if you think the 1898 death is your relative - invest £9.25 in a copy of the cert.

It will tell you who the informant was ............and the cause of the man's death

You can't find out 'how' a person died except by obtaining a copy cert..........unless, of course, the death warranted a report in the local newspaper

Hello and welcome to the Community Boards Valerie.




Note: I will let Valerie know that she has replies to her query. :-)

Thank you to all who are helping me, so who would Freda's father be, it cant be Isaac as he died in 1898 and Freda was born is 1901 and William Wright married Margaret in 1906!!!!!!!!! any clues

You would need to buy Freda's birth cert to see if a father is stated on it

Freda was born in 1903 - not 1901 - according to the registration info posted above
