Its worth to eliminate if needed, Mary Ann and George had 11 children and I havnt finished researching them all yet.

It's only a suggestion, of course. The name on the image for Mary is definitely Hill (no final 's') but it may prove worth investigating

Dont know what that means

The burial record you have posted makes sense, the registration date was 3rd May 1894 on the death cert.

Just researching Nellie Folkes

What was the occupation of the deceased?

Delboy1978 Report 8 Feb 2025 12:07

I do have that one and the informant was a coroner rather than a relative However there are two addresses listed on it and one matches the same street as the 1891 census so could well be?
