Death |

Kirkby Ireleth, Lancashire, England [10] |
Age: 60y |
- Can only find a National Burial Index entry via FMP
It gives burial date as 07/02/1912 at St Cuthberts
Can't find a GRO to match it.
There is a GRO for a John Simpson dying in Chorlton, age 60, Q1 - all of which matches.
However, I can find a John Simpson in 1911 in Chorlton who would fit this death.
Searched for suitable GRO entry:
1912 Simpson Ulverston JFM - None found [Tried with Exact, Similar, Phonetic) - Also Simson
1912 John Ulverston JFM - None found
Emailed Barrow Record Office to see if they hold the Burial PRs [18/07/2022]
