Death look up please for Mary Ann Firkin, nee Wooley. She died in west brom staffs.She died, I believe, in the early autumn of 1841, before the census. I have looked on ancestry beta but can't see her. I am trying to find a clue to her age.Thanks |

The only way to discover her age will be to buy the cert........... I thought censuses were taken early in the year................... Reg |

Sometimes free bmd give an age, but not in this case. I thought the death in sept qtr was her. As 'her' husband peter is down as a widower on the 1841 census I thought the census was later in the year |

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO If the census was June 7th.....she can't be dead and not registered until July!! UNLESS......he wasn't a widow (no marital status in 1841), but she was in hospital and not yet dead. Merry |

Think you will find that your one is from the 1851 census NOT 1841 .. and it appears to be the same family that I have found in the 1841 above |

Judging from 1841 census ....Mum died between 1838 - June 1841......maybe she died in child birth ??? Her death was most likely indexed... Elaine ;-) |

Elaine (DD !!) The census which Lynda thought was from 1841 is in fact from 1851 Mother therefore died sometime between the 1841 census (which I found) and the 1851 (which Lynda had) Elaine (the other one !!) |
