sheehan death in cardiff 1890's
« on: Monday 26 April 10 11:21 BST (UK) »
anyone know Where I can look for info on an ancestor (surname Sheehan) who drowned in cardiff as a boy some time in 1890's. I can find no record on 1891 or 1901 census so he must have been born and died within those years, but I cant find it on the BMD index either.....where else can I look? thanks

how certain are you about the date (and name)

Freebmd has the following in Cardiff

Birth - Thomas Sheehan Mar qtr 1883 ref 11a 267

Deaths - Thomas Sheeham  age 5 Jun qtr 1888 11a 170.

But that would be 1880s rather than 1890s - is that too early for the family ?
Jones, Davies, Evans, Williams, Daniel, Thomas - Glamorgan
Keen, Goodwin, Pyatt, Leese, Bailey, Loffill, Stubley, Brassington, Blurton,  - Staffs
