Maria Burchill
« on: Saturday 03 February 07 02:54 GMT (UK) »
I look for the date and place of Maria Burchill's death.

She married,at the age of 32 years (widow), Benjamin Heazle (23) on January 20th, 1853 at Saint Peters United Church of the Ballymodan Parish in Bandon.

She died before April 4th, 1860 wedding date in St-George, Bermuda, of Benjamin Heazle with Ann Evans.

Benjamin joined the 39th Regiment of Foot of the British army in 1854. He was in Crimea in 1855-56, in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) from 1856 till 1959 and in Bermuda from 1860 till 1865.

I do not know if Maria followed the Regiment. I did not find her decease in Quebec.

The date of decease would allow to find who is the mother of the son Benjamin been born on April 10th, 1858. We do not find the certificate of Benjamin's christening jr and the name of his parents is not mentioned on his wedding certificate.

Thank you
