Burial at York St Michael Spurriergate

Just discovered that the Borthwick Institute which holds all the parish records is now relocated in the University at Heslington, York.

Diana - If you get a chance to look at the burial record it would be much appreciated.  I am hoping that there may be additional information as it is a Dade register.
The Borthwick is now in the main library building at the University.

Hi Sue,

I managed to look-up the burial entry for you;

Margt FRYER wife of James FRYER of Goodramgate late of Low Ousegate, died on Friday 25th January and was buried on Monday 28th January in the South Ile (sic). Aged 67 years.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that - the husband is correct,  and the age is about right;  and there cant be that many Margaret Fryer's in york at that time.
