Tramroad, are you sure he died in Keighley? I cannot see anything remotely near those dates for Keighley or West Yorkshire for that matter.

Hello Tramroad, it is possible that your George did not die but perhaps Emigrated?
I can see a death for a George E Poole, born 1858 Barnsley. I have a feeling the death is outside of the UK. He died Jan 1938.
Let me know what you think.

hi madri i am sure george poole died between 1875 to 1879 as his wife remarried in1879.the only reference
i can find is george arthur poole died in pancras 1876 and george poole died died in poplar both london areas.
i have emailed keighley burial church archives to see if they have any records.
thanks tramroad

Hello Tramroad. Well, thats really strange. I can see George on the 1871 Census. Born 1858 Barnsley. (There were 2 on 1871 Census - the other boy, also known as George E, born same year and in Sheffield).
Do you have access to A......y? Have a look at the family trees - It is definitely George E Poole, born 1858, Barnsley, died 1938. I have checked the English deaths and cannot make a match, which makes me think he died outside the UK as place of death is not listed. These trees are 'locked'. I suggest you have a look and get in contact.

Hello Tramroad, I think I may have found your man. The possible death is registered under Bolton.
George E Poole Bolton / Age 81
Jan-Mar 1939 / Wakefield
Vol No: 9c / Page No: 23
Madri
Correction: George E P Bolton (not as I have typed out above) still think he is your man though.

Hello Tramroad. I owe you a huge apology. The George Poole, born 1858, Barnsley I was looking at had the parents Abraham Bolton & Jane Collier Poole - that is why I gave you all those other details. Lordy, I haven't half sent you on a wild goose chase. My sincere apologies. The death details supplied by dobfarm does look the closest. I had seen that before, but because I was chasing thw wrong man etc etc. So very sorry Tramroad.

Hello,
there is a George Poole b 1858 living in WestHam in 1871 :-\
Tramroad,
If your George was born 1858 and could have been married and died by 1875, he would have been very young at marriage.
Do you have his marriage certificate?
Did his wife remarry in Keighley?
regards
heywood

hello heywood i have george poole marriage certificate january 1875 he is listed as 20yrs old but i think he was probably nearer to eighteen, his wife emily nee brown remarried in 1879 to a john boydon, on the 1881 census emily boydon is living at liversedge in the bradford district. tramroad

Hello again,
I can see it now. I was looking for a marriage for Emily Poole. Did she marry as a widow ?
I wondered that as she married in her maiden name, and as there is no apparent death of George, they may just have split up. However, there is no record of him :-\
