PIPE, KERRY of Brundish Suffolk

[JJen]

Hilda Kerry was the daughter of Clement Wightman Kerry and Emily Kerry.

Clement (b.1870) and Walter Kerry Snr (b.1862, and the father of Walter Kerry b.1889) are brothers. Therefore it would appear that Hilda was buried with her uncle and aunt.

Would that be the Emily Kerry d 1945 headstone I found? 
Daughter Gertrude Soanes d 1992 and son in law Robert Arthur Soanes

Yes that would be the correct Emily Kerry. She was 72 when she died in 1945. Clement W's wife was born in c.1872, so it all ties in well.

Gertrude Kerry/Soanes was born q4 1910, Hartismere, Suffolk

I found the info re Walter Kerry on Ancestry.

I had a look at the newspapers as if the story of his being murdered is true, I thought it might be reported in his family's local paper even though he wasn't living there any more, but there was nothing in the papers.

Tanya Marie, do you have access to any of the sites such as ancestry? And (as you say you're new to this) have you got to grips yet with the free sites like family search, and freeBMD? If not, we can point you to how to get more info from these too.

[Tanya Marie]

No I haven't used the free sites as yet.

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

this is where the marriage and birth registration information above was found.

https://familysearch.org/

if you go further back, this may come in useful - it also has a lot of info re American data; but some of the info on here has to be treated with a pinch of salt, take it as a suggestion rather than gospel truth!

If you decide to get any certificates, this is the site for that:

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

£9.25 per certificate (if you purchase certs through other sites they can charge you up to £20 or more at a time), and you need information such as year, quarter, page no, etc which you get (for free) from the freeBMD site.

You may not be at the stage of getting any certificates yet but if you do this hobby for any length of time you may find that you start to build a collection of them!
