I have hit a brick wall trying to find when and where my great great grandfather died.
GEORGE PALMER was born 14.9.1807 to THOMAS BERRIMAN PALMER and MARY(nee HAYMANS). GEORGE's baptism is recorded on 7.6.1808 at St. Andrews, Congresbury.
The 1841 census shows GEORGE (born 1807) and ELIZABETH (Born c 1911) at Cleeve with their son, also GEORGE, born 1828 and baptised 27.4.1828 at Brockley.T hey had a second son, Thomas born 26.7.1829 who died and was buried in Yatton 20.9.1829.
I can find no record of GEORGE and ELIZABETH in the 1851 or 1861 census, nor can I find any death registration that fits the known dates.
The marriage of GEORGE PALMER snr. and BETSEY HAYMANS took place at St. Thomas the Martyr, Bristol by banns on 27.3.1827.
I can trace GEORGE'S (1807) line back to the 1778 marriage of JOHN PALMER and SARAH BERRIMAN and forward to myself, JUDITH PALMER born 1946. My questions to resolve are:-
What happened to GEORGE(1807) and BETSEY/ELIZABETH(c1811) after 1841?
Where and when did they die?
Any ideas on how to progress with this conundrum would be greatly appreciated.
