Lookup request - DILBEY in Surrey
« on: Saturday 25 June 05 19:49 BST (UK) »
All,

I hope that somebody can help me find the death details for one of my ancestors.

His name was Joseph George DILBEY, born in Dalston in September 1858. He married Alice GILBERT in 1884.
Between 1886 and 1891 they had three children in the Islinton area of London.
Sometime between 1891 and 1898 the whole family moved to Kingston in Surrey, and they had another three children between 1898 and 1901 (and probably another in 1903). The 1901 Census reference is RG13/662, folio 98, page 31.

JG Dilbey was my great-grandfather, and I am trying to find out when he died. He was present at the marriage of my grand-mother in August 1916, and his occupation on the certificate says 'Soldier', but I cannot find anything beyond that. In 1916 he would have been aged 58, and I can't imagine that he would have lived to be very old!

Can anyone find the details of his death?

many thanks.
