Title: Rachel Gooder/Lee - death
Post by: Barbara4t on Tuesday 15 June 10 00:50 BST (UK)

Hi - can anyone help me find a death for Rachel Gooder nee Lee/Leigh please.
     
Rachel Lee was born c1805 in possibly Elland - she married John Gooder 1826 in Elland.
They had three children - Mary born 1831 in Rastrick - Northend born c1833 Rastrick and
Richard born c1835 in Rastrick.

John Gooder(born c1804 in Rastrick) his three children and a new wife(Betty) came to NZ in 1841.

I am assuming that Rachel Gooder must have died sometime between 1835 and 1841 but
have hunted high and low with no luck.   :D

many thanks
Barbara

Barbara, if you hsve huntd thru the freebmd, which I think has 100% coverage for the early yrs of Civil reg, then maybe one can assume that she died in 1835/6 and thus missed out being registered.
Bit of an assumption but ...

The parish regs for Rastrick don't show her death?

Try all the regs for around rastrick.... non-conformity was very strong in that part of England then.
Good luck and keep us posted how you're going.  It can be a long haul. ::)
