Death Index
Hi Listers,
I have found a death in Ancestry of Ann WHITELY nee FARRER Registration quarter Jan-Feb-Mar Death Registration Place Bradford Death Date Mar 1864, Interred Death Place Yorkshire West Riding, Volume 9b Page 49. But I cant get a copy of the death certificate from GRO as I tried to put all details in and it came back no results. Ann was a Quaker but have only found her birth to parents John and Hannah HOLMES and she got married to Thomas WHITELY in Bradford Parish Church in 1826. I have also found on Ancestry will for Thomas but again cant get a copy of the full will. Probate was in Wakefield. How do I go about getting the above when I get “no result” which I search Maureen In Oz |
Note slight spelling difference

Hi Listers, |
The registration has her surname as WHITELEY - try again. It gives her age as 23.

On the GRO index the surname is spelled WHITELEY - but can't help with the will, sorry

Try ordering your certificates with the reference numbers you have. Don't bother with a search, just go straight to the ordering a certificate page.? Put in the minimum they ask for and the year along with the GRO reference. Sometimes less is more.? They may have a slightly different spelling. Check the reference numbers you have before you put the order in. Lesley N Wales On 06/11/2024 08:18, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

When did Thomas die? and where? Bradford? Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 08:18, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:
Hi Listers, |
Thank you Lesley and Carole. I dont think this death is mine as my Ann WHITELY was definitely born in 1800., so would be about 64yrs.

For wills post 1858 the best place is Cost ?1.50 and normally less than a week to be notified of the download being available Make sure that you order both the will and the grant - grant tells you exactly who were the executors and the details of the death Regards John Hanson FSG Researching the Halstead/Holstead/Alstead names Researcher, the Halsted Trust - Research website - And my own study of FOSKER -----Original Message-----

The only difference between the available probate calendars on Ancestry & Findmypast is if there is a folio number on the Probate sites copy In this case there isn't so you don't really need to find it on the GOV site, just order using the information on the probate calendar from Ancestry or Findmypast However if you want to find it, search the GOV site for WHITLEY year 1869 and key word Four Lanes, result one page with your entry on it Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 10:39, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

On your Anns death , she is still alive in 1871 Manningham, enumerated as Hannah WHITLEY aged 71 born Idle YKS a widow With her is a granddaughter Ann DABBY? aged 18 born Allerton I suspect the death you require is this one WHITTEY, ANN 74 GRO Reference: 1875 M Quarter in BRADFORD YORKSHIRE Volume 09B Page 161 Although it looks wrong, if you check the GRO index on freebmd its indexed twice with the same reference there but only the above on the GOV GRO site Ann WHITLEY 74 Bradford 9b 161 Ann WHITTEY 74 Bradford 9b 161 The GROs indexes on their own site were compiled completely differently to the GRO index on Freebmd But given the evidence I suspect this is her death reg Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 10:39, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

I can assure you it is spelled WHITLEY in the probate calendar <> And as its the same probate calender on the GOV site where you order it, its also spelled the same way as WHITLEY So thats the spelling you need to use to order the will Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 20:58, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

As in the case of the wills, you don't need to put all the details in

Search for the year 1875 The surname = WHITTEY Forename = Ann Select Female District if Death = Bradford That is all you need to enter, then search, one hit as I posted earlier Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 21:09, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

You do not need to put in all the details, thats why its not coming up for you

All you need is the year, the surname and key words Four Lanes Nothing else is needed And as I said you don't need to even search for it, you have the details to order it (where you do need to fill in the detail) Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 06/11/2024 20:56, Maureen Farrer via groups.io wrote:

You need to be careful when entering the dates and be careful because the first date required is the date of probate which is 19 Oct 1869 the second date is the date of death 13 Sep 1869 Also make sure that what you enter is EXACTLY what is on the probate not what you think it should be Regards John Hanson FSG Researching the Halstead/Holstead/Alstead names Researcher, the Halsted Trust - Research website - And my own study of FOSKER -----Original Message-----

Thanks Nivard, did sort it all out and have ordered the will. I also have on my tree a family spelt WHITELY, so that was my confusion.
Still cant get the death certificate for Ann WHITLEY even though I have all the right details. I have had this happen before and wrote to GRO to tell them but no reply. Regards, Maureen |
