He was the informant on his wife's death cert in December 1913. Date, place and cause of death Haven't found his death for certain. I have a death cert for a Thomas Brewer of the right age (79) who died 21st February 1927 at 700 Hucknall Road, Nottingham (which apparently is the Workhouse) One of his son's lived in Nottinghamshire. He is of no fixed abode and a smallware hawker. The informant was G W Gould, probably the Workshouse Master. I have no idea if this is "my" Thomas Brewer. I can't find another death that "fits", but there is no way of knowing if this is the correct one. Date and place of burial / cremation. Unknown Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable Unknown Memorial inscription - if any Unknown Link to son: William Brewer

Just had a thought that I wonder if the Workhouse admission register would throw any light on the origins of the Thomas Brewer on the death cert?

I think when I get the chance (daughter's wedding in 3 weeks), I'm going to have to try and work out where this Thomas Brewer I have the death cert for originates from. I'll have to have a trip to Notts Archives I think and search the Workhouse records for when he was admitted and if there is any further info on him.
Other than that "my" Thomas Brewer could be anywhere, so I'll plough through the death indexes. Lots of work for the darker nights I reckon. This man has been annoying me for years, his earlier life was easy but then when his wife died he disappeared.

I emailed the Notts achives this morning and have just received this reply. Unfortunately the admission and discharge registers for the Nottingham Union Workhouse only survive until 1920. Likewise the registers of death only date until 1920. We have however located the following reference which may be of use to you. SO/PUO/2/10/1-23: Creed registers giving name, occupation, religious creed, year of birth, last address, name and address of nearest relative, ward in which kept and dates of admission and discharge. (Names of those still resident are copied from one register to the next); 1910-1942 Please note that there are registers for the years 1925-1927.
