Title: Burial Look Up please for 1901 Leicester.
Post by: Steve C on Thursday 02 October 25 21:06 BST (UK)
Just been going over some old notes and realised I do not have burial details for William Skelson who died December quarter of 1901 in Leicester.

I have his second marriage details for 1881 and the Census for 1891. It appears he became estranged from his wife Eliza and is listed as a Pauper on the 1901 Census. Eliza is listed as a boarder on the 1901 Census living in Westbourne Street, Eliza died in 1906 and is buried at Welford Road Cemetery.

Does anyone have access to information or records who could help with burial details for William Skelson please.

Many thanks in advance Steve  ;)
