(In)appropriate address
« on: Monday 18 November 13 11:29 GMT (UK) »
I've just received an 1841 death cert with a most (in)appropriate address in Manchester.

Shatwell's Buildings.

The informant lived there too, and had signed.

The cause of death - "Disease of the Bowels".

 ;D ;D ;D
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
