Hi Sandy, what particular address are you looking for - he's no doubt lived at many addresses.

Do you mean his birthplace?

both deaths were in wetherby then , how can i find out where they were buried , is there anyway without searching in cemetaries

From Google, the cemetery in Wetherby seems to be under the control of the Town Council. Maybe contact them?
Or as you're in Wetherby, go to the cemetery and speak to the Cemetery Superintendent.
http://www.wetherby.co.uk/town_council/cemetry.php4?PHPSESSID=a441ae14b1b4246dd5f8c2912e8376e2

They don't appear to be buried in this other Wetherby cemetery:
http://www.gravestonephotos.com/public/cemetery.php?cemetery=461

I don't know if there's a cemetery in Kearby; if so, that would be the most likely place. The deaths were registered in the Wetherby registration district, but it doesn't necessarily mean Thomas and Mary were buried actually in Wetherby.

To find where he was born, you'll need his baptism record.............it MAY have the place of abode on the record, but there's no guarantee.
