This is AMAZING thank you so much. I have ordered a death certificate from AncestryI was born in Staffs Moorlands and have a records of births , marriages and deaths to help with my family tree searching.
His death was Cheddleton /Leek. Cheddleton was only a village but Leek is the town.
There must have been a good reason for him to have been moved over 60 miles to another hospital when there were 2 very good ones in this area.
Lesley to find any definite answers you should get his death certificate to see his cause of death and his address and who registered his death.
If he was a patient at St Edwards when he died, Stafford records office hold the records of the hospital.
I don't know what the records office is like now but a few years ago you could take proof of identity, register, and search records, I would think with the Covid situation you would have to telephone beforehand.
Thank you SO much
