Hi there - look for a burial of Ursula Turner (nee Poppleton).

She was married to John Turner. Her family was raised around Topcliffe in Thirsk.

Can anyone spot a burial for her and John?

Best wishes,

Peter

You're quite right - sorry about that!

She and John were both born c. 1743 - thanks ArgyleGran!

There is this burial on Findmypast but not sure whether or not it is the person you are looking for (year of birth is 10 years later than you thought but in the right place):-

maybe not - nearly 100 years old

Thank you - I wonder if the age on the 1786 burial is perhaps a mistranscription?

And the 1842 one could be John and Ursula's daughter - I've not found a marriage yet.

Any sign of a burial for John?

Well, there's this, but goodness knows if it's him or not. Silkstone's near Barnsley, so probably not:


EDIT - Ignore this - senior moment - Taylor instead of Turner!

England, Select Deaths and Burials, 1538-1991 about John Taylor
Name: John Taylor
Gender: Male
Age: 72
Birth Date: 1743
Burial Date: 17 Jul 1815
Burial Place: Silkstone, York, England
FHL Film Number: 1542217

You say, "I've not found a marriage yet"
For whom?
Ursula & John's marriage (1771) is posted above.

Not found a marriage for Ursula junior.

Not sure if the 1815 burial is John as that one is for a John TAILOR not TURNER.

What do you think?

Yes, I've edited it above - senior moment - searched for the wrong name!

Not a problem.

There is no image to check for the 1786 burial I posted earlier so I suppose it could be a mistranscription of the age.

I can't find a burial that looks likely for John on Findmypast but the records are by no means complete.

Thank you Kathleen, will make a note and look up the original at some point. Thank you x

Oh heck - that throws a spanner in the works!

Thank you - not sure which one is which?

Is there any way to differentiate which burial is which? I.e. which one relates to Ursula born in 1743 in Staveley?

Also been looking for a marriage of Ursula's parents but can't find anything. Any ideas?
