I'm hoping Libby will know where they might have lived/died to save me wading through the thread again (as I didn't write that on that bit of paper!), then I will have a look on the Death Duty Reg if Libby doesn't have a sub.

Don't forget that some of the entries on the Index to Death Duty Register show the place of residence of the executor / administrator rather than of the deceased. But anyway, I think they are all supposed to have died in Bristol.

OK, so for starters I'll look at Bristol and consider working outwards. No doubt the exors will have lived there too (I hope!)

Searched Taylor Bristol:

1852 Eliz Taylor exor Wm Taylor Bristol
1850 Elizabeth Taylor Bristol exor Geo E Taylor

No Joshuas

1858 Sarah Taylor Bristol exor Mary A Clark Swansea
1859 Sarah Taylor Sydenham Road Bristol exor Abraham B Grey 6 Charlotte St Bristol

So, the second Sarah is the right one as Abraham is her nephew, but I don't know if either of the Elizabeths are right.

This is the National Probate Calendar entry for Sarah:

1859

24 October.

There's a mention of the second of these in post #64, but I've not read around it to see why we liked that one!

Morning all.......thanks for working through the night for me......lol

I honestly have no idea where my brain is lately. I have full subs for FMP and Ancestry, but have no idea why as I cannot find anything on either. I didn't renew my Genealogist sub and I really miss it.

Can you put together a shopping list for me. My daughter is asking me what I want for Christmas......lol.
We know Liz died in 1850, but I don't think the death cert will tell us much we don't already know.
I am off to have another read of William Ariel's will.
