Find Ancestors

Ooops, missed the bottom bit. thanks. :-)

Yes Alvie that's the one, does it say who executors are, thanks.

This the one?


England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966 about John Race
Name: John Race
Probate Date: 9 May 1917
Death Date: 13 Apr 1917
Death Place: Durham, England
Registry: Durham, England

of 11 Esh Terrace, Langley Park. Probate to George Edward Johnson newsagent and Thomas Watson Wilson, surgeon. Effects £220.

John died March Q 1917 aged 81, could someone please look at Ancestry for the Probate/Will. I've had a look at the Ancestry index and it looks as though there is only one John for 1917. Thank you.

Thanks again, I should have waited shouldn't I :-)

I have found this entry below for 1851
Hull Mary Head W F 73 1778 Gardeness Bishop Auckland
Hull May daughter unmarried F 40 1811 Newton Cap, Auckland Durham
Race John son unmarried M 13 1838 scholar Newton Cap Auckland Durham
Address: Newton Cap Auckland Co Durham

His mother's maiden name was Hull so I believe this is him. Could someone take a look at the 1841 and 1861 census to see if he is still at the address. On the 1881 census he is at Newton Cap. The 1911 census (see above) has a John Race at Newton Cap. Thank you.

I can't at the moment see her marriage to GRAY............
