Hi Yes I will order his death cert, mostly though i wanted to view the records of his time in the workhouse.

Thanks for any help.

Hi I have full access to Londons Poor Law records on Ancestry but really getting stuck using it. Please can someone help me. On the 1901 Census Colquhoun Sankey Morton is a pauper inmate at the Gordon Road Workhouse in Camberwell. I now believe the whole collection is on Ancestry but no matter how much i look i cant find him. Colquhoun died in 1905 and wonder if he died there. Please please please can someone help me find his records if they are on there. Thank you so much.
