I have finally got round to ordering this certificate and am now keeping everything crossed that it is the right one.Deaths Jun 1913
Goldsmith Mary A. 72 Eastbourne 2b-101
Age varies a bit as in 1871.
It is the right one! Oh frabjous day, calloo, callay!
Yay!It is the right one! Oh frabjous day, calloo, callay!
Thank you so much, Wendy!
Because I couldn't find Mary in the 1911 census, I did not know if she had died before it was taken and so it was only because Wendy found her in that census - plus the death registration - that I could take that chance.
I know that it is her for definite as the occupation column states, "Of no occupation of 18 East Street, Eastbourne (which is also where the family were in 1901), widow of Caleb Goldsmith (my great, great grandfather), Jobbing Gardener."
I am chuffed to little mintballs as I have been looking for this for years!
Thank you!
