Check the death on freebmd for the person’s age

I'm sorry ErikaH but I can't find the burial again! So annoying. Ancestry is sulking.

Lucy Stallard was christened in 1831 - see Malyon's post above. She was living in Brighton.

This would make her c.55 in 1885.

I'd seen the 1871 possible census for her and it all adds up re Brighton etc., but she is described as an Annuitant. I thought that this was odd for such a young person and no other clues.

Still on the case on this one ..........

What was the location of the burial in 1885? How old was the deceased?

Nicola'S Report 16 Oct 2020 22:40

I'm returning to this post on behalf of my cousin.

I've found Lucy's possible burial in a Common Grave in 1885 but she could also be the death above found by ArgyllGran.

But I cannot find her in the 1881 census which would be a big help. Can anyone see her, please?

That Lucy's father father died before appearing on censuses, so we don't know his occupation.

However, she doesn't seem to be on censuses after 1861, so the 1865 marriage may well be hers:

Ooooooooooh, well he didn't ACTUALLY marry! He and his not wife shared the same surname of Gibbons and never married; neither did on of their daughters. But we know all this.

In 1871, the family are living at 13 Landseer Street, Battersea, London. His pob is given as Banbury, Oxon but it is DEFINITELY him.

Does this help?
