Research Notes

• Possible death record for William, It is the right place and time frame, but he is about 10 years younger than he should be, but this could be a typo or misinformation given. Just unsure.
  • William's death (age 62) was registered in the Apr-May-Jun quarter of 1887 in the Blything district.^[6]
• I can't find a source for the marriage record listed
