I have been trying to find my uncle Christopher Frank Bentley's date of death . He was born Dec. 1893, Nuthampstead, Herts, which comes under Parish of Barkway, Herts. Searched Ancestry records. Been to Hertford R.O. no luck on baptisms either. I am told they were Non Conformist , but there was a little Mission Hall in the village. He was still alive in 1901 census, but must hav e died as a child as obviously didn't reach maturity. |

Thank you all for replying. I am pretty certain he died as child, as I was surprised initially to hear of his existence, but he is shown on 1901 census. My Dad (his brother) was born in 1911 , and there was ne ver any mention of a Christopher. So I am assuming as all my Dads other siblings reached maturity, that he died. |

I've tried the full index from 1901 to 1916 (I'm presuming you Dad would remember him if he was still alive then) and nothing for Christopher. |

Thanks Mary, I have also tried. This is a bit of a mystery. His name was definately Christopher Frank Bentley, born Dec 1893, Hertfordshire, in the village of Nuthampstead. Still I will not give up.!! |

Do you think he may have been adopted out? |
