Middlesbrough Cemeteries

What was his wife's name, place and date of birth?

[Ecneps]

And what was his place of birth?  He's nowhere to be seen in Spencer St, 1881 so maybe he died before then?
1881 30 Spencer St was occupied by John Murphy & family, do you know where Cornelius was in 1871?

I am trying to find any record of my G grandfather John Smith who was a captain in the Yorkshire Hussars. His grave stone was in the Linthorpe cemetery approx 60years ago next to his sister Ann Hollins -neither are there now. Apparently he committed suicide after losing his house and farm gambling. I can find no record of him in Military records (probably because of the shame he brought upon his family and regiment).
Any help appreciated...

Hi Robmarnic,

Welcome to rootschat!   

Would you like to give full details of your gtgrandfather, date and place of birth, death date, wife, parents, siblings, and what census and other information you already have for him, and we'll see what we can find

Thanks for your reply Barbara, but I am very short on details. I will see what else I can dredge up from my cousin who lives in Middlesbrough. I will be away for two weeks but will write again after then.

When you find out more details, perhaps it might be as well to post a new topic on another board.  Had a quick look for Ann Hollins death (as thought it would be easier than looking for a John Smith without dates) but couldn't find anything in the Middlesbrough indexes - here's the link if you want to have a search:
