Thank you both for your replies. Richard died last qtr of 1895 age 67 in Edmonton Middx Still looking into Hannah death, but it would have been in London, as the family stayed there.

Hi Vera
Thank you. I no longer have access to ancestry. I did find the Fontes error 2 years ago, did not know that you could correct it..
Are you saying Hannah died 1895 age 65?
I have got Richard Edward Foster death in Edmonton last qtr 1895 aged 67
volume 3A Page 163 Looks like they died at same time???
I can't find Hannah after the 1891 census, so would make sense, but I have not found the info you have kindly posted
Think I need acsess to Ancestry again!!
I am trying to fill in all the extra details now on tree. I just wish the family had used more names for the children, Don't know where the Richard came from, but they kept using it,

Vera

Vera Report 9 Sep 2013 09:32

Hi Pauline,
A pleasure.
It certainly looks like they died around the same time. I would say it is your Hannah.
Unfortunately we all have the problem of the same names in families...doesn't help when you are trying to find a particular person :-)

Vera
Could you give the ref for Hannah'a death please
I think I will send for the certificates, out of curiosity
Maybe interesting. Also I think I will look at newspaper reports, as Richard worked on them, so it may have been reported in the deaths , as they lived in the printers almshouses, also!
regards Pauline
