James Grimshaw death

[basa364]

Hello,
      Could anybody please help ?  I'm trying to get a death date for my ggg grandfather James Grimshaw.
 He was a weaver in Manchester and he died between the 1851 and 1861 census. 
   In the 1851 census he is shown as 59 years old living at 10 Crossleys buildings, St. Georges, Manchester with his wife Mary and daughters Elizabeth and Susannah, he also had a son, Thomas Henry.
    I've located 4 possible records :
     jun 1854 manchester 8d 113,  sep 1857 manchester 8d 219,
     mar 1860 manchester 8d 88 & jun 1861 manchester 8d 155.
I don't know if any of these are his and i don't fancy buying all the certificates to find out it's not him.
          Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you ,Kevan.

Hi Kevan
I was in a similar situation once at Matlock record Office.
I explained the situation over the phone, and the nice lady there said they would only charge me for the one that was the lady I wanted - the one that fitted with other information I could give like age, address and husband's name, hence saving me having to buy 3 or 4 certificates. She even said that if none of the deaths were the right person, they wouldn't charge me or cash my cheque
You could ring Manchester and see if some kind person would do that for.
I've always found the local offices to be really helpful.

Good luck!
