I am trying to find the death of Frances Abercrombie (Rex) b c1798 married Frederick Abercrombie. He died 14 January 1865 in Maynooth Cellbridge Ireland so she may have died there also.

In 1841, they were living in Woburn, Bedfordshire, which is also where their children were born. For some unknow reason, they are all listed separately!!

What a wonderful transcription of Abercrombie!!! ........... I have sent in a correction!

Estimated birth year: abt 1796

a Public Family tree has Frederick's death as

Frederick Abercrombie
Birth
1800
Death
14 Jan 1865 in Cellbridge, Kildare, Meath, Ireland






But has nothing for Frances (of course!!)




Also, a submitted family record on the I G I, without much backing documentation, has his place of death as Waymouth, Cellbridge, Kildare & Meath,

Sorry, I can't pick her up on any census after 1841, so she may well have gone to Ireland with Frederick.
