'Ward' is an area, not a hospital

I haven't used this site before but it claims to have a copy of Samuel' death certificate. You have to pay to view it though

There are also a few possible marriages for Sam & Ida. It might be worth subscribing as you could check children's births too

Hi Gins,
Yes I did have a look, can't find where it says that they have a copy of death certificate, I know you have to pay but if I pay and you can't see I would rather pay for one to be sent, is that poss from New York?

Hi Folks,

Does anyone think this might be worth a look at?

Reference:
J 77/2094/5574
Description:
Divorce Court File: 5574. Appellant: Elizabeth Harrison. Respondent: Samuel Henry Harrison. Type: Wife's petition for restitution of conjugal rights [wrcr].
Date: 1924
Held by:
The National Archives, Kew

Kind regards
Amanda

Nice find Amanda

So Elizabeth wanted him back?


Restitution of conjugal rights

This could be brought against a husband or wife who was guilty of "subtraction"; that is, living away from their spouse without a good reason. If the suit was successful, the married couple would be required to live together again.

Thank you Amanda, how interesting, how did you find that?
That brought a tear to my eye!
That was five years after her return from New York.
Thank you so much.


And thank you Gins for explaining. :-)

Amanda,

Amanda, Report 23 Nov 2013 09:31

Hi Ebbie,

You mentioned that Elizabeth remarried so it's always worth a look on the National Archives website to see if a Divorce took place before 1937 as Kew hold the Original Documents, it might be the case that the Divorce was much later on.

Thank you Gins, I always forget to add the extra bit of information!

So as it might be her I am off to Kew to view the papers and see if it is your Elizabeth, if it is I will get copies scanned of the documents for you.

I'll be back on here this evening.

Kind regards
Amanda
