Trying to find an entry of death for the above please.

Born 18/05/1889 to Emily White from Rotherham.
He married Augusta (Augustina on the certificate) Lavinia Hague on 30/07/1927 in Hull.

I would be so grateful if anyone could help me please.

Thank you in advance!

No, he wasn't the informant. It's all a bit strange as no-one in the family seems to remember him (though people still alive in my family were very young when Augusta died in 1958). She had three illegitimate children before she married him (no father on the birth certificates).

Her death certificate does say she was the wife of William Kenworthy White, so he must have still been alive.

Yes Jacqueline, I have looked for myself but couldn't find anything on this. I have lots of info on the rest of my tree but couldn't find a death for him. And I have a date of death for Augusta but couldn't find a place of burial. Sorry, thought this was the best place to ask for help.

Nicola

Nicola Report 20 Apr 2015 22:46

And, yes, I was looking for them in 2011 but then had children and didn't have time to continue with my tree until now. I have got back to early 1800s. Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask.

There are a lot of deaths for William White, with the right birth year or thereabouts, but no way of knowing which might be him if he moved away from the area.

Rambling Report 20 Apr 2015 22:51

he was born Apr qtr 1889

so maybe?

name: William White
Birth Date: 18 May 1889
Date of Registration: Mar 1980
Age at Death: 90
Registration district: Pontefract
Inferred County: North Yorkshire
Volume: 5
Page: 1192

if you get the birth cert it might help eliminate?

Nicola Report 20 Apr 2015 22:54

Thank you so much to the people who have helped me. I have just ordered the death certificate. It does sound like that could be him. I apologise for not keeping everything on the same thread, didn't realise I had to do that when it was a different subject or the post was 4 years old. Thank you!
