I've just received what I was hoping was going to be the death cert of my 3xG-grandmother.
However, although the age (73) and area (Manchester) are right, the lady in the cert died in the workhouse, and no marital status is given, only her occupation.
Does this necessarily mean she was a spinster? I've always found widows' husbands' names shown on ther death certs before.
The informant was a workhouse employee, so he's no help.
