Hi,
I wonder if any kind soul out there subscribes to Find My Past website and wouldn't mind doing a look-up for me please? I subscribe to Ancestry worldwide and would be more than happy to return the favour. There is a Mary Ann Loosley buried 1806 in the County of London in the City of London Burials 1788-1855. I would love to know what further details are recorded there if someone were able to look for me please. Many thanks. Nicky

The only thing to add to Choccy's post is that Mary Ann Loosley was aged 17.

If you have Ancestry worldwide you can view the actual image yourself. Go into London, England, Baptism, Marriages and Burials 1538-1812. Click on City of London then St Andrew's Holborn. Then choose the year you are looking for ie 1806 and it's on page 39....fascinating!

Researching:
Go on, make my day!

Many thanks for this Londonbelle, I shall check it out. 17 years is probably too young for the person I am looking for, but thanks for drawing this collection to my attention.
I shall have another look today.
