or Sophia Franklin 78 Islington 1870

Can't find a H m Rapier on Honduras Terrace in 1841.  The closest I can get is a Wm Rayner (trying to think how handwriting could be read differently) who is a mariner.

Wm Rayner could be a match I will try and crop the image and post it on here

Thanks for those deaths Jan I wonder if Sophia left a will.

having not brought certificates for a while, are they still £9.25 ?

[Spidermonkey]

Not sure Toni.

Just had a look at the historic newspapers on FindMyPast for Charles Onken.  Looks like he was made bankrupt in 1855.  Also there is a marriage reported in Leicester Chronicle (20 Aug 1887) between Charles Edward Onken, son of late Charles Onken of Finsbury, and Lydia Ray.  Marriage took place 10 Aug at St Margaret's, Leicester

Other bits and bobs
