hope someone can help me find the correct death

The only real way to know if that is the correct death is by ordering the cert and seeing what clues it might hold. The informant might be a family member, you might know the address those sorts of things. You say His wife remarried does her M/C hold a clue ( does it says she's widow ) although there is the possibilty she lied...

i have ordered her second marrige cert just waiting, gro have told me if the checking points dont match then they wont send the cert , just worried that if i get the cert n find its not him and i would of wasted money

found out it says she was a widow on her second marriage so he would of died 1887 or 1888 and theres only one coming up during those dates and its 1887 in bethnal green
