Hi listers, I've been trying to trace my blincoe family from Langley Marish in buckinghamshire. Thomas Blincoe was bapt there on Sept 3,1826. I have been unable to trace him in the censuses, but have just found a death on Ancestry's London burial index for a Thomas Blincoe on Sept 1,1869. thomas had a brother William 3 years older than him who died in 1869 back in the Eton reg district, although he was in the Surrey area in 1861. William died in the Eton Union House aged 47. The record on Ancestry for Thomas shows that he died in the Poor Law Union at St Marylebone, although no age is given. I've traced the death index on Free BMD and Thomas age is given as 44, which is fairly close. As I'm blind, I'd really appreciate it if SKS could please have a look at the image for me to see if there happens to be any further info on there. Not that I'm expecting to find any earth shattering news, but it would be nice to know if there was any additional info. Thanks for any help that can be given. Best wishes to all, Jon
