Hello List, I am looking for a favour, if anyone is going to the local studies is Sunderland could they possibly look in the Electoral registers between 1892-1896 for 8 Flag Lane. The gentleman in question is John HUNTER ( There could be 2 of them). I have been trying to find out when he died but have been unable to tie up his age with the ones in St Cathrines Index.Hopefully I can tie up his departure from Flag Lane to his year of death. Is anyone researching Hercules Hunter and his wife Elizabeth in Monkwearmouth?. I have a copy of her death certificate which is not connected to my HUNTER family. Regards Ian Ridley Coventry
