Hi Listers, I know this is going to be a long stretch, but here goes. Is there a way to find where my great grandfather, Edgar Smith was buried in Stroud? I'm not sure of the statistics as my grandmother, his daughter only found out about his death probably a few years after his died. My grandmother, Caroline nee Smith, Platt went to visit him at one point and found out he had passed away. My mom tends to think he was at an old age pensioners home at the time prior to his death and probably was buried at a paupers cemetery. How would I go about finding out from this side of the pond? Esther Edgar Smith, born abt;858/60,died:abt:1948/52, Stroud Parents: Silvanus Smith, Emma Bick, Gloucestershire Spouse: Elizabeth Swan Children: Caroline, born abt:1905, Gloucestershire, died:2000, Wiltshire Frederick Smith, abt:1912,died:? Is there a way to find out how many there was back at that time and if they kept records On Jan 8, 2007, at 6:08 AM, Margery Whitham wrote: > Anne - I appreciate your help and certainly will be applying for the > Certificates. > > Very many thanks, > Margery > > > > > - Original Message ----- > From: "Anne Peat" <anne.peat@bigwindows.demon.co.uk> > To: <gloucester@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Sunday, December 31, 2006 5:50 PM > Subject: Re: [GLS] MEADOWS and LLEWELLYNS of Stroud and Gloucester > > > Sorry, Can't find Henry Fitzroy meadows on the 1901 census with parents > Lucy Alice's birth is on Free BMD > Births Sep 1904 > > MEADOWS > Lucy Alice > > Gloucester > 6a > 348 > > as is Henry Fitzroy's > > Births Sep 1898 > MEADOWS > Henry Fitz Roy > > Gloucester > 6a > 299 > Getting one birth certificate would give you parents - and both would > confirm the realtionship. > Sorry not to help more > Anne > On 31 Dec 2006, at 12:30, Margery Whitham wrote: > >> I am trying to piece together the above families. >> >> In particular I would like to find a Henry LLEWELLYN born Stroud >> c.1862.
