Thank you so much for all this information I had not been on to this website for a little while but have been working hard on my research. I appreciate your kind offer to help.
William and Georgina Hannah were married on October 23rd 1868 at March in Cambridgeshire. William worked for the Great Eastern Railway in March for a short time and then they moved to Derby to work for the Midland Railway.Finally they moved to Burton and he continued working for the railway as a goods guard then a shunter and finally a Pavior. He was in his 70s when he had an accident on October 30th 1902and was forced to retire.
They has Alice whilst still living in Cambridgeshire in 1870, William in 1873(he became the Baker), Spinks in 1876 ( I think he died but have no evidence for that) then John in 1883(my grandfather who also worked for railways). My private email is email address deleted I would appreciate anything else you are able to find locally ion Burton. Many thanks Liz

Please contact Liz by PM

Thanks for the info about my grandfather's brother William the baker 163 Horninglow Road. he married Kate ??? but I think she died 18/2/1908 aged 34. I think their son Frank died on 16/11/1917 aged only 15years but can't get at any details to confirm these.I have a photograph of Jack aged about 7 with a dog. Anything else that you can find in Burton about this family would be much appreciated. Liz

Hi Liz

I can't think of anything I can find locally that Merry hasn't suggested. The death certs are the only way of finding out how they died, unless you can come up with anything specific I may be able to find.
