Find Ancestors

can you answer one more question. i know that george died in Alberta st, Longton staffs, so why would he be registered in stafford or Cannock

Hi Janet,

I checked the death entries on Ancestry.com.

If you search you should be able to find George Jnr's birth as well. If you get stuck post another message.

Hope that helps.

LL

thanks again, if beatrice wasn't the informant then it would have been his son george either way i will have something to go on.
where did you get your info from

Checked the deaths till the end of 1975, there were 2 other George's who died in the Staffordshire area but they were born in 1910 and 1920 so not him.

There is another possible death -

Jan/March 1975 Cannock Chase
George Podmore born 17 Jan 1895
GRO 30 0624

Janet,

If Beatrice was the informant then, yes, her name will be on the death certificate.

LL

that's great. will definitely follow it up . i know he died before beatrice so will her name be on the death cert do you know

however are you finding this info so quickly, i didn't have a clue
thanks so much for your help

Could this be George Podmore's death?

April/June 1972 registered in Stafford
George Podmore born 5 August 1885
GRO 9b 1031

It gets very confusing , some people knew him as george johnson taking his wife's name and others knew him as george podmore,
he must have died between 1968 and 1975. i got married in 1975 and i think he was dead by then

Do you have any idea when George Podmore died?

LL

so if he was born 1885 , he would have been in 1968 about 83yrs. so that cancels out the 1885 birth as i know he was not in his eighties in 1968
will try the 1896 birth . I suppose sarah hodgson could have had a relationship with a younger man as she was born in 1882
George junior would have been older than me so he would have been born approx 1940's in longton stoke on trent . Alberta St,
A relative of mine as just told me she thinks George senior came from Nottingham way, but from the recollections from my mother i feel it was shropshire

If its Shropshire it narrows the field - do you know when the son, George, was born to George and Beatric. Did he take the name Podmore or Johnson?

Births Sep 1885
Podmore George Newport, Sh. 6a 798

Births Mar 1896
Podmore George Howard Wellington, Sh. 6a 704

george i know was born outside of stoke on trent. could possible shropshire. he never married beatrice johnson nee ????? so i haven't got a marriage cert to go on

I know in 1914 he was old enough to father a child and that he was a coal miner
i also know he was alive in 1968 aged approx mid seventies

Janet,

Do you know if George had a middle name, there are so many George Podmore's born in Staffordshire during that timeframe. We really need some more information to narrow down the search.

roughly what era

George Podmore, don't know what year he was born or which area. only know it was not stoke on trent, possible shropshire. He lived with Thomas Henry and Sarah Hodgson and family for a good number of years. During those years he and Sarah had a relationship whilst she was still married and her husband living in the house. Which resulted in 4 children. These children kept the hodgson name
He later went on to live with Beatrice Johnson nee??????? and had a son named George who became a teacher in his adult life

Known as Poddy to his friends
