You can search for her free of charge on the 1911.co.uk site. Try looking for her husband first to see where he is living, then use his residence on the advanced search to look for her. To look for her death I used http://www.freebmd.org.uk and put in a death between 1901 and 1911. A number of hits came up, mostly with age at time of death so you should be able to identify her, assuming she had died before 1911.

Hi Pam Neither the West Surrey FHS index to the Godfrey Maps of London, nor Streets and Places within the Admin County of London refer to Selhurst Rd. Exploration in the additional index to the Surrey Godfrey Maps reveals both Selhurst Rd (sheets 1402 and 1406) and Holy Innocents(1402). This suggests Croydon rather than Lambeth. This is confirmed by a street map of Croydon which shows Selhurst Rd, well within the Croydon boundary. I didn't discover a date on the street map, but it is pre decimalisation (3 shillings).

As already mentioned by others, Norwood Surrey is a different place not to be confused with Norwood Middlesex. Norwood Middlesex is near Southall and is in fact one of the ancient parishes of Middlesex but these days tends to be less well known. (Norwood Middx was originally part of Uxbridge RD but more recently Ealing RD.) The irony is that whilst the Surrey one is more well known nowadays, it is in fact comparatively modern as a populous area - taking its name from "north wood" which was the forested area north of Croydon. For greater London cemeteries this site remains a good guide: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hitch/gendocs/cem.html Ann Surrey Admin

Norwood is in the London Borough of Lambeth, which is in south London. Ealing is on the west side of London - not to be confused with the early registration district in the City of London. I believe the West Norwood cemetery records may be consulted at the Lambeth Record Office in Minet Road - free to personal callers. They offer a paid search facility which will obviously be much cheaper if you can identify his exact date of death.

I am trying to find a burial place for Rebecca Dorothy Houldsworth who died at St. John's Hospital South Battersea on 1st August 1951. Where would I start to look. Cynthia Australia
I would appreciate some help in finding the Death Record for my maternal gr.gr.grandfather, Joseph Richard Holland. Joseph was born in Dec 1808 in Lambeth, Surrey and he was the widower of Sarah Prudence Twopenny (sp). The last record of him I have found is the 1891 Census of Camberwell, Surrey, when he is living with his married granddaughter Kate Greenfield and family. Kate's husband is William Greenfield. There are several Joseph Holland in the death index and a few Joseph Richard Holland. I've ordered several of the most likely and none reference his deceased spouse or a known relative. It has become to expensive to keep making guesses! Does anyone have easy access to the death registrations that they might be able to do a lookup for me. I would have to guess that he died in Surrey as his granddaughter stayed in Camberwell until at least 1911. Joseph was a retired carriage decorator and saddler. His father was John and mother probably Ann Harris, but this is not proven conclusively. Thank you Tim

Hi Pam I was born in 1958 in Clifton Road, a road off of Selhurst Road, I am not an expert here, so just as background info, Clifton Road is South Norwood and I think came under Croydon, West Norwood came under Lambeth I think. >From where I lived everyone was taken to Mayday Hospital in Croydon and my family were all taken to Croydon crematorium which has a massive cemetery in Mitcham Road, Croydon. There was also an old cemetery in I think Queens road. Just for info. Regards Steve Burt Ferring, West Sussex
