Brilliant, Geoff very many thanks for such a quick response. Sophia Watts put her mark on his death cert. He was described as a labourer. Maybe work was hard to come by as he was definately a 'boat person'. Cheers, Margaret

Could a kind person view these census for me please. I am looking for John Henry Rumbelow married Anne Wilburn at K.Lynn 1869 and have since gone missing without trace. Were they on the KL 1871. I have traced only one J.H.Rumbelow who died 17 May 1873 Hull Infirmary - sub district Myton. His lodgings address 19 Mason Street Hull. death reported by Sophia Watts. Did Anne live at this address I wonder. Thank you.
