Bennett Selina (nee Knowles)

I`m struggling to find out what happened to Selina Bennett (Knowles) who was born about 1827 in Birmingham. She married John Bennett in 1848. In 1871 they are in Warstone Lane, Richmond Terrace. In 1881 John is in Birmingham Workhouse and described as a widower but I can`t find a death for Selina.

Incidentally - are there any records for Birmingham Workhouse online?
 
jane you can ask the library of birmingham but as the case has been so many times they will most likely say they the workhouse records were destroyed and they no longer have them...having said that some of our members have been told the library may hold a limited amount of records so my advise is for you to phone or email the archives dept and ask them as i would not want you to take my word on this one...good luck

hopefully someone can help you find selina
