I have been trying to trace my Gt Grandmother's death. She was born in 1883, married 20/07/1903. Shewas also on the 1911 census with her husband Henry Linehan. The record of her death is really hard to find. Can anyone help please :)

Possible?
LINEHAN, Mary Ann
Registration district: [?] Redbridge County: Essex
Year of registration: 1969
Quarter of registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
Date of Birth:4 September 1884
Volume no: 5D Page no: 1863

Maybe? Not sure what names people went by in those days! She had my grandmother in 1921 and another daughter after that. I cannot find those because of census yet birth and marriage she went by rosetta???

Sorry Annette
Ignore that one.
No sign of a Rosetta could she be Rose.
Where was she living when she had the children?
Von

According to the 1911 census:
31 Pritchards Road
Bethnal Green.

She was wife of Henry Linehan had quite a few children but,
I cannot find out what happened to her?
It seems she disappearred

Do you have Henry's death certificate?
There is a possible in 1951?
Von

No not yet!
I have been trying to get my nans mother for her
as my nan is 92 next week! She cannot remember much
now so i wanted to surprise her with her mothers death
cert.
I have been on it all day, looked on freebmd that suggests divorce
which means either wrong mother or wrong father????
My head doing spins now!!

Annette you say that you can't open posts? do you mean this one?

I've not read through but seems possible that there is some duplicate info? best to stick to one board, and one thread if the same family is concerned.

NB to helpers, I am posting this on the other thread too.

this is your other thread -

You will need to get John and Martha's marriage certificate to find out his father's name and occupation. The witnesses might also be related to him, ie siblings, which would help to find him on census returns.

Annette, if you' 're having trouble getting back to your posts just use the "My Threads" link on the left. That should hopefully help.

I am very new to this but have realised i need to click on the post title it comes up!
Silly idiot i am

Annette, these boards take a bit of getting used to!

You' 'll be fine now :-)
