Find Ancestors

thanks to all who responded, have now found william and his family, cheers everyone

Simpson- Gillamoor public member trees.

says fathr is Thomas Simpson and mother Cora Leng

marie celeste, which tree did you get your info from please

for moody blue - his occupation is that of Motor Mechanic, he died before his wife who died in a nursing home in 1998, he lived on his own for a while, they had no children, her sister and brother died before he. Marie Celeste - I think this William died before my William as I am told he visited his wife in the home between 1993 and whenever he died. Think I will invest in Sheila's DC and see iof there are any clues.

Do you have his wifes death certificate? maybe you could get some clues from that ie if the address is the same as any certificates you may have for him. If it does say widow Who registered her death maybe. if we could find a living relative ( the one that did register her death ) Perhaps this living person could be found on the Electoral Roll and some answers gleaned from them?

What was the occupation on the latest death certificate please?

According to a tree on Ancestry this is his death:

England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2006
Name: William Simpson
Birth Date: 13 Oct 1913
Date of Registration: Feb 1985
Age at Death: 71
Registration district: Hull
Inferred County: Yorkshire
Volume: 7
Page: 911


and this is his wife's:

England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2006
Name: Sheila Alice Simpson
Birth Date: 11 Nov 1923
Date of Registration: Apr 1998
Age at Death: 74
Registration district: Hull
Inferred County: Yorkshire
Register Number: D54A

Don't know if they're correct.

I have it on good authority that William died between 1993 and 1998 in Hull but still cannot find details of his death on either this site or free bmd, any help appreciated

Another dead end unfortunately, received DC but it was for another William, born same era but occuipation different, hey ho, back to the research table.

thanks for all the help everyone, have sent off for the DC for William, as identified by moodyblue, will let you know result, cheers

Possible ? Seems Alice Sheila Barmby preferred to be known as Sheila Alice.

no occupation for his father, William's occupation is that of Farm worker living in Newton on Derwent at the time of his marriage, think the farm is still there, wouldthey have records do you think?
