Title: Bridlington Deaths for Gray, Shipley, or Hillerby
Post by: AngieToton on Friday 10 March 06 16:21 GMT (UK)

I am looking for any dates of deaths for the names Gray, Shipley, Hillerby (Hillarby), Dodgson  that are for Bridlington or Bridlington Quay from 1820 to possible the 1860's.  My family lived there but I have no death or burials dates. 
Can anybody help me ?
Thanks Angela

Angela, so sorry, I have all the same birth dates as you but none of the deaths for this particular branch of the Shipleys.

I wonder if you know whether Eliza and William Sunley were brother and sister?  If so I have located a Sunley family in Bridlington who might fit the bill:

1881 Census
Dwelling 1 Ings Lane 6 Garden Place, Bridlington, York, England 
RG11, Piece / Folio 4798 / 121, Page Number 6

William L. SUNLEY, Head (29) Bridlington, York, England   Gen Labr     
Mary SUNLEY, Wife (29) Bridlington, York, England       
Eliza SUNLEY, Daur (5) Bridlington, York, England   Scholar     
John SUNLEY, Son (1) Bridlington, York, England       
William SUNLEY, Son (1m) Bridlington, York, England

This might be a coincidence but the other side of the Gray family tree lived in Ings Lane Bridlington. It all starts with John + Joyce Gray, they had Eleanor Gray who married George Hillerby. On the 1851, 1861 and 1871 she was living at 8 Ings Lane.
John + Joyce also had William Gray who never married and ending up living with his niece Christiana Shipley on the 1891 census.
John + Joyce also had Mary, she never married but had Christiana Gray, and Christiana married Francis Shipley.  The rest you might know.

This is perhaps were the Sunleys come in.

Hi Di and Angela

This is Suzanne also doing Shipleys.  Yes Di, I believe that  Eliza and William were brother and sister who married Shipley siblings Robert and Christiana, Francis and Christiana's children.
