You can look for the GRO ref yourself on Ancestry, without charge. To find the exact date, you will have to buy the cert, which will cost £7.00 Reg |

Going by your previous thread with her date of birth being 1835 - 1841, and bearing in mind she was on the 1901 census, this is a possibility Deaths Jun 1903 Smithson Ellen 67 Liverpool 8b 98 taken from FREE BMD |

Kelly If you find him on 1881, and post the info, we'll look at the others. It's much more fun if you do some of it yourself............ Reg |

Kelly - can I make a suggestion. When you are requesting a death lookup then its useful to let people know the last census date you found the person, and where they were at the time. We found Thomas on the1901 census earlier today, so there is no point people looking for anything before that date. 1901 Thomas Smithson abt 1839 Barton, Lancashire, England Head Preston Lancashire |

This is the only death on FreeBMD on Ancestry that has a birth year anywhere near Thomas's Name: Thomas Smithson Birth Date: abt 1842 Year of Registration: 1905 Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec Age at death: 63 District: Bolton County: Lancashire Volume: 8c Page: 255 I think you will need to look through the Complete Indexes on Ancestry (free to search) to see if there are any others that might be him. You won't get an exact date of death from this period. If people have found exact dates for you it is either from much later events (after 1983) or much earlier (taking information from the LDS website which isn't always accurate). You need to buy certificates in most cases to get exact dates. Kath. x |
