I am trying to find the death of Eliza Keen born in Bucks but lived mostly in Hammersmith. In 1881 I found her and husband Thomas as "Keene". In 1891 I found them as "Keen", she was aged 59. He died in 1892/3. In 1901 I can not find her. In 1901 there is an Eliza Keen of the right age from Bucks living in Bucks, but I think that this is one of the 2 Eliza Keen of about the same age living in Bucks on the 1881 census. Her house from 1891 is occupied by her daghter and family in 1901. I assume then that my Eliza Keen died between 1891 and 1901. I have looked through deaths between 1891 and 1901 on 1837online and only found one possibility in 1896. This is in Hemel Hempstead so I think that it is probably one of the other 2 Eliza Keen one of whom was born in Watford and lived in Amersham in 1881. Is anyone able to come up with any suggestions? Should I just carry on trawling 1837 online in case she was missed off the 1901 census? I have already done a couple of years and believe that I found that the Eliza Keen who was around in 1901 died in Wycombe in 1902. Should I carry on? |

Do you know where hubby died? If so maybe you could trace his grave and she may be buried with him. If you have an address and are not London based, I can look up nearest cemetaries and let you know contact details for searches. E-mail me direct if you need this as I have 'a little book'!! Maz.

I have sent you an e-mail Maz. I don't live near London, but sometime would like to go to visit the Hammersmith area. I don't think that my wife would be very appreciative though. |
