Received the death certs of my OHs gggrandparents today, opened Philip Calladines first and thought i had my first wrong cert, but after opening Sarahs, the occupation looks similar. I know Sarahs is right because of who was present at death.

I have marriage certs for 2 of the daughters, on one Philip is a Collier and the other a Miner,

Philip`s

The occupation is "Drover" and rthe surname is Jolley. A drover was a person who drove cattle, which sounds quite different from a collier! I suppose he must have changed jobs.

Thank you for looking Kiterunner, i should have added Philip died in 1841 and Sarah 1877 and the children were married after he died, so i may have a wrong cert after all.

Bear with me people, there is a Jolley family (transcribed as Tolley) living next door to the Calladines in Bag Lane in 1841. Elizabeth is the wife, unfortunatley there are no house numbers.

Source Citation: Class: HO107; Piece 199; Book: 11; Civil Parish: St Peter; County: Derbyshire; Enumeration District: 14; Folio: 12; Page: 19; Line: 16; GSU roll: 241300.

If this is the informant Elizabeth on the cert, she is not his daughter, but could mean i have the right cert for Philip. :confused:
