If you plan to erect a new headstone, the purchase of Susanna's birth cert for £9.25 would be very worthwhile................

If you don't already have it - Beatrice's birth cert would give you Martha's maiden name, which would then help you find her marriage to Thomas.

Williams Susannah Jane - 13 - Barrow F. 8e 591



Can't see a birth for Susannah in Barrow

If she is Beatrice's sister it's worth noting that her mother Martha was born in Wales.

Maybe check this one out ..

Ah right, that may be whats happened here then.
Hopefully ill stumble across her.
Thanks for all your help

Just for reference - I have an ancestors grave and on discovering who else was buried there ( not mentioned on the headstone) I found that there was no connection - I was told they were simply neighbours .and it was probably cheaper to use an existing grave than to buy a new plot.

Sammy

Sammy Report 14 Mar 2011 13:45

well i need to know who she is for two reasons,
Both my Nana and Grandad are burried in a grave that doesnt have their names on.
I need to find the details of who is on the grave first before we can add them to it and get a new head stone.
When we asked at the cemetery they couldnt find the information?
So ive had to resort to some good old research, which I seem to mainly be hitting walls with.
Also i cannot find where she would fit in to my tree.
I have a feeling that she may have been Martha Williams and Thomas Williams daughter, and the confusion is due to the corrode on the stone.
They are the parents of Beatrice Martha Williams which someone has already confirmed.
But again cant find Susannah

Well, the records indicate otherwise................

What made you latch on to this person?

At the moment, you are not giving any reason for your train of thought, so helping you is difficult, to say the least

Sammy

Sammy Report 14 Mar 2011 13:06

its in barrow in furness, it says her name as Susannah Jane only
I have photos of the headstone but struggle to read it
I assumed she may be an ostell as Beatrice married Thomas so assumed she was their child.

Where is the graveyard?

Is Susannah's the only name on the headstone?

Is there any other wording in relation to her?

What led you to think that her surname was Ostell?

Sammy

Sammy Report 14 Mar 2011 11:24

no my grandfather was Thomas Ostell and his wife Beatrice

Mike * Report 14 Mar 2011 11:21

So Susannah aged 12 could be ANY relation, or none.


The burial records for the church/ cemetery should be able to tell you who is interred in the grave.

Sammy

Sammy Report 14 Mar 2011 11:15

I am limited on information that i can provide, it is a grave stone that i am going from and cannot add my grandmother on to it until i can find the details for who is in the grave already, but Susannah seems to be a mystery, i cant find any mention of her anywhere.
Her surname is not mentioned on the grave, i think this is an impossibility.
thank you all for your help :)
