Find Ancestors

Hello everyone. I had to log off unexpectedly last night. Thank you all for the information above. I wonder if someone could have a look at the probate date for Lila's father, Thomas Harrison Byers who died 1914 (from Ancestry) then I can send for the two Wills. Thank you. PS this is just a quick post as I'm at work but about to finish so will pick up tonight after tea. Thanks.
OOPS - just seen page 2 - thank you all again.

The inclusion of the maiden name suggests to me that no marriage took place..............

Re Maud and Harold -
I can't even see Mr Hull marrying a Maud with any surname she could have had from a previous marriage. Not per FreeBMD, anyway - assuming only one previous marriage.

Leeds Times

Yorkshire Gazette
Publication date:Saturday 14 January 1899

On the 10th, at St. Peter's, Harrogate, the Rev Robert Goodacre Cope, eldest surviving son the late William Cope, of Hempshall, Notts, to Alice Lily, only daughter of James Archer, late of Combermere, Sledmere, and Rokeby.

Not having any luck with a marriage of Maud Archer to Harold Samuel Hull.

That death in 1942 is her. Here is the probate record....

England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966
Name: Margaret Elizabeth Archer
Probate Date: 10 Aug 1942
Death Date: 4 Apr 1942
Death Place: Darlington
Registry: Llandudno

Margaret Elizabeth Archer, otherwise Lilla, of 36 Langholm Crescent, Darlington, died 4th April 1942 at 92 Rosemary Hill Road, Streetly near Birmingham. Probate 10th August, Llandudno, to Maud Hull (wife of Harold Samuel Hull). Effects £7797.

Will do!

But first, here's another possible death for Margaret - age better than the one in your OP, Marian:


Deaths Jun 1942 (>99%)
Archer Margaret E 73 Lichfield 6b 492

But of course, she could have remarried, or her death record might not show her middle initial - depends on the informant..

Have you looked for a marriage for her(Margaret Elizabeth) after 1911?

Is there a full list of mourners at her father's funeral?

Added:
Her age is a long way out in that 1901 census, so death could also be out.

Easily done................sleep well!

Re Fanny -
sorry, Reggie and others - I was thinking about a person on another thread!
I mean Margaret /. Lilla.

Think it's time I went to bed.

The 1901 census posted above by Reggie (Harry, Zilla and Maud) is correct.
Her name's transcribed as Tella on Ancestry, but in the image it's definitely Lilla.

So the Ripon death could be possible.

No Marian, not you...............Argyllgran

I think you should buy the 1907 death cert, Marian. That would give you his father's name, and whether or not he was married to Fanny..

Hello, I haven't mentioned a Fanny. I wonder what happened to Maud.

The 1907 death was for an adult - no parental info - unless the father registered it, which I doubt, as he was born in 1824

And who is Fanny?

[EDIT: Sorry, not Fanny! I mean Margaret / Lilla)

Without definite information, we're just stabbing in the dark.

Lilla in 1911 does sound like the right person - name and birthplace are right, and age is near enough.
