I have a death cert for Jane COTT d 11 Oct 1846 at Lymington but reg 12 Feb 1847 after an inquest. It says "widow" but unfortunately not who she was a widow of. I suspect she may be Jane CAWTE, widow of John. I can't find her on the Hants burial CD but wonder if anyone has any access to any parish records which may record her burial or even if she received assistance from the parish (which could be Milton). Any help appreciated. Francis Auckland, NZ
Francis, The hants burial CD is predominantly pre-1837 so you shouldn't expect to find the burial info there. Inquest records generally haven't survived, but there is almost certainly a report of the inquest in the local papers.

Thanks for the reply. Of course she won't be on the Hants Burial CD - what was I thinking ? I have since checked on the Hants RO CALM database but no luck. Is there an online source for Hants papers ? By the way, it's the first time I've never seen a widow's husband mentioned on a death cert. Just when you need it !!
