London Gazette, Trustee Act and a death record
« on: Friday 24 February 12 07:31 GMT (UK) »
Good morning lovely people

http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/42955/pages/2920/page.pdf
Last Record - on the page

I don't understand "NOTICES UNDER THE TRUSTEE ACT, 1925, s. 27" The pages of explanation which I have discovered are too legally for me! Can anybody explain what triggers someone being included onto this list?

And here's another thing. This record gives an exact date of death for AVK, which matches with the notes I have received from members of her family - so can anyone find her death index entry?

Looking forward, as always, to reading any replies

With thanks

FreeBMD haven't yet transcribed 1963 death indexes!
See http://www.freebmd.org.uk/progressD.shtml.

There are always looking for volunteers for transcribing, so . . . .  ?! ;D


Notices under Section 27 of the Trustee Act, 1925 simply ask for anyone having a claim against the deceased to contact the Trustee mentioned.
I.E. anyone who thinks the deceased owes them money!

Thank you!

Stan - I know she was cremated at Shrewsbury, which kinda fits with Flintshire (and I know she moved about a lot) The birth date is bang on, I can't find any other records of an Aerita Kenley, and it's is *such* an unusual first name that I think I'm willing to commit to that!

Would you believe, I read through the entire K section of that Quarter, and still managed to miss that record - a fresh pair of eyes makes all the difference :-)

KGarrard - thanks so much ... but why is it deemed necessary to list some people in this way, ie not every person who dies? There must be something in this person's estate/circumstance/finances/life which requires it...

Every question begets another!

She was married!

Marriages, September qtr 1907
East Retford district (Nottinghamshire)    vol 7b, page 17

Kewley, Henry Leonard
Johnson, Aerita Violet

I believe that Henry was a clergyman - which might explain the travelling! ;D

And her birth:
December qtr 1884
Brighton district    vol 2b, page 251
Johnson, Aerita Violet

She was indeed - and yes he was. I have much of her earlier life mapped out - she was widowed in Ireland in 1945 and lived mostly in Bucks after that. She had four children whose stories are nice and clear too :-)
I have a beautiful photo of her on her wedding day.
Sometimes the fact that some parts of a life are so well-covered makes the gaps and the mysteries even more striking...

...having said that - can anyone find her on the 1901 census??? She was brought up by relatives and may be in a household including the names Gamble or M(a)cGowan

Hmm! She's proving elusive! :-\

1891 has her, and sister Isabel Vera, with Aunt & Uncle Ernest & Maria Gamble in Kirk Sandall, Yorkshire.
