Perhaps the enumarator couldn't spell Bungalone!

Thank you for that Janice. I'll bear it in mind for the future

John the info 1881 is from Ancestry records. 1881 is free to search http://www.familysearch.org is one site you can find it in

Janice, the 1881 census is wrong as to Joseph's place of birth. it was Bangalore, India. His father was on military service in the 15th Hussars.he took his wife with him to india as it was a lengthy tour of duty.

Hi peeps, ise back again. i am astounded at the response that I have received from what was a long shot on my parrt..
Eric, i tried "Freebmd" no luck, or I was doing something wrong.
Diddydoris, I am fqvouring 1925 Camberwell as a possibility as Camberwell is in Southwark and may be the registration office.
Janice, You re spot on with 1861.Jane age11 was Joseph's first wife.

Thank you all very much, yu've given me a lot to think about and"You've all done very well" More power to your elbows.

I have to go out now. However I will be back on line shortly after 2 p.m.

Diddydons, the 1925 date looks interesting also. i might go for that

Monk, you were right about the marriage. St. George,|Hanover Square December 1881

Thank you peeps for yor response. I have Elizabeth as being born in Churston Ferrers, Devon, but there may be some doubt about that. Her sister Jane (Joseph's first wife who died in childbrth) was born in Churston Ferrers but it is possible that Elizabeth was born in Lambeth. Conflictinfg info here. I will try the Address your gave me Eric. Thanks for that.

Hi John, you will first have to establish Elizabeth Birth and location.
I have pulled this one from deduction only because brides did not tend to stray far from their origins,and came up with:

Births Dec 1857

Head Elizabeth Sarah St Geo Han over S 1a 208

Then you Can establish right age at death:

Deaths Sep 1929
Blaber Elizabeth S 61 Brighton 2b 226
Deaths Mar 1929
Blaber Elizabeth 59 Poplar 1c 799
Blaber Elizabeth H 71 Lambeth 1d 436

I am trying to tind the date of death of Elizabeth Blaber nee Head. Elizabeth was married to Joseph Blaber who died in 1894 leaving her with a number of children including my mother Lily aged 1. The 1901 census has Elizabeth livng with her children at Queens Buildings, Scovell Road, Southwark, London. I have tried L.D.S.,I.G.I. andFfamily Search with no luck. Is there a kind person out there who can please tell me what steps I should take next. or even find it for me. Any info would be gratefully received.
