Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

She is my great grandmother. I'm sure she would be buried in Burngreave Cemetery - other relatives are buried there. But no record for Hannah's burial anywhere in Sheffield. Can anyone help me to find her burial site?

If Sheila's married who was her husband. If not married who were her parents and were they born in Sheffield.

Re: Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

Her name is Hannah - not Sheila. Hannah is the name on her death certificate. In the 1911 census, she was the head of the household - she ran a boarding house. At that time she was separated from her 2nd husband - George William Timperley. Prior to marrying GWT in 1891, she was a widow - she had been Hannah Casson married to Rowland Casson. Hannah was not born in Sheffield - she had come from Liverpool, but was probably Annie & not Hannah at that stage, though her birth name is not definite, nor year of birth. Death certificate says she was 74 at time of her death.

probably buried at a church in Attercliffe but not showing on here as not yet indexed 1936. Bereavement services might be able to assist.

presume you have seen the newspaper articles regarding Hannah in 1919 regarding as she was the victim of a robbery.

Re: Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

OK, I accept that's a possibility, though it seems odd, given all the other associations with Burngreave cemetery & that she lived so close as well. What leads you to this conclusion?

Re: Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

No, I hadn't seen those - are you able to upload them, or give me a reference?

Well found Barry was that on family search? It wasn't the church but that's where her first husband was buried though

Re: Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

Thanks heaps! That's a better connection for her, though she owned the plot in Burngreave where her baby daughter, adult son, & lover are buried - & there was still space for her, as I understood it.
I will be visiting from Australia during the year, & I'll know where to look now.

Don't forget to get your ETA to visit UK. This is addition to your passport.

I know nothing to do with family tree so apologises if this post should not be here

Re: Hannah Timperl(e)y died 18/09/1936, lived at 167 Ellesmere Road

Yes, I have the ETA already - it was approved in 2 mins & only cost GBP 10!
