These are fantastic, thank you for sharing. I would love to know what capacity my family were at Rowton House. I believe that he was a worker there, but have not been able to find any records.

I wonder if that is why the current island (roundabout) under the M6 (Spaghetti Junction) is called Salford Circus.

Hi, yes I did get a copy of the 1935 certificate. Unfortunately this was for a different person Lillie Wheeler and Joseph Wheeler

I also obtained a copy of a death cert for Lily Wheeler in 1952 and this shows her as the wife of Charles Longford Wheeler age 74 - so this would match to the DOB. The informant is stated as W E Davis, Son in Law, but I have no one with that name.

No, I haven’t got a birth certificate for Lily. This information came from my uncle, so a trusted source. However I was planning to recap my sources, when I find time. at one point I thought that Charles’ wife was one and the person. But although the date of birth is similar there is no match

Hi, yes I do have a date of death as January 1958. Thanks

Hi Lyn This is the link to the 1911 census for Lily -...

Not checked for any travel as I don't think they had the financial means

Hi all, I have been given a link to the 1930 census which shows the Rising Sun, Talbot Street. https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imagevie...at=35&fh=0&h=2719700&recoff=&ml_rpos=1&hovR=1 The occupants are listed as Fred Madeley, Fanny Madeley, and Lily Wheeler. I am interested in Lily as she is my 1st...

This is a list of what I have checked so far, plus I have added this query to the Family Tree Forum (FTF) I have requested a number of different copies of death certs, in the vain hope of getting a 'hit', but so far no luck. These are the ones I have tried; 1913 - Qtr M - Reading - 02c - 435...

Okay, I'm going to take a shot at resurrecting this query as I am still no further forward in finding out what happened to Lily. I have paid for a number of potential death certificates, but they have all come back with a different spouse, except one (copy attached). Not sure how to...

I have just found a link (http://www.astonbrook-through-astonmanor.co.uk/Pubs.html ) that shows a Royal George but at Park Road. A GOOGLE search also shows a Royal George Hotel ( https://www.hotelroyalgeorge.co/en-GB/contact-us ) at Garrison Lane. Not sure if these are red herrings!

Thanks Mikejee. It's on a marriage certificate as the residence and her profession is barmaid. Could these mean that her father owned / managed it? He is shown as deceased and a coal hewer (below ground) Thanks

I've just come across a certificate that shows one of my family living at the Royal George Hotel, Tower Road, Aston (1936). I can't find any trace of this - does anyone have any clues?

Hi Maurice, Yes, that's correct. George then moved on to Rowton House and the girls went to a convent, but I lose track of Lily / Lilley Jane

Hi, I have a Lily (Lilley) Baker born about 1878 in my family tree. She married George Wheeler but I cannot find any other trace of her after 1911 / 1913. I did put a posting on a forum discussion about this separately but still no luck. No link to the surname Cook, but she may have remarried...

Quick update. The 1935 certificate is no good either, so still no date of death for Lily.

Hi Everyone, Hoping that I can now upload documents 4 in total. Ellen Wheeler (my nan) marriage certificate This shows her home address as 99 Grantham Road - not sure why here? This shows her fathers occupation - Church Metal Worker? This shows that her sister Florence was a witness George...

Hi Janice the docs are in WORD. yes, I also think that Dymock and Dymoke are the same. Still having trouble getting a trace for Florence at the address. I always new my nan as Ellen. I think she as called Nell by close older friends. It was only on starting family tree that I have found out...
