Just another little bit of info - from LancashireBMD, both deaths were registered in "Central" sub-district of Manchester.

Hi,

Hi Cancan,
Indeed they are family. In fact. Betsy is Richards sister so that's some more information that I did not already have. Richard and his wife need more investigation but at least the trail is becoming clearer.

Good  News!!    Thought with the names it could be a possibility,

The family seemed to use St Thomas's Ardwick for their marriages, did they use it for baptisms?

Checking the registers for St Thomas's Ardwick it seems the burial registers are missing from 1854 to 1924.. So it could be a good possibility that they were buried there.  You haven't stated place of residence from the death certificate, so working on the 1891 St Clements Place, he seemed to be still living in Ardwick.

The church is surrounded by flat gravestones, it might be worth contacting the MLFHS to see if they have transcriptions of them?

Lancashire archives, Preston have MI for St Thomas's on microfilm according to their list.

Many thanks,
Indeed they were living in the Ardwick area at the time of death so this could be the answer. I will see if any transcriptions are available.
Pardon my ignorance but what does " MI for St Thomas" mean?

MI = memorial inscription 

[Cancan]

I have the MI's from inside the church, but not from the grounds,
they are not listed on the inside.

Good luck!!

Keep us posted!

Many thanks all. I will now check various sources for the MIs !
Best wishes.
