death certificate on-line, I already have my great-grandad’s death certificate, but I simply cannot find my gr/gr/grans.
Her name was Martha Hatton (nee’ Beresford -Shaw, formerly Simpson.). She was born 15th April 1818 in Sneinton, Nottingham, UK, and died 14th August 1889, in Provo, Utah County, Utah. she is buried alongside her second husband William, along with his other two wives. I found my gr/grandads death certificate on this site,
http://historyresearch.utah.gov/guides/death.htm#1905-1951
I just want any thing regarding my gr/gr grans, death or just to see the entry into the burial record, can some one help please, anything regarding any of the others would be an absolute bonus.
Hello Mitchell, I have the information you posted for me , but many thanks anyway. I was hoping to get Martha’s death certificate on line or the entry that was put into the death index giving her last known address and any other information that one of the researchers may have uncovered that I might have missed. There is already a photo of the grave as I asked www.findagrave .com if they would do it for me. So I have seen the grave. I dont know where the Greasley information came from I have Martha’s baptism certificate and she was actually born in Sneinton. That’s where Martha and Thomas her first husband and the father to her eight children married. I have yet to find out where the marriage to William Hatton took place.

She is listed on find a grave you can ask for a photograph hopefully someone will go and take it for you. if this is you who posted the memorial then you probably aready know this =) I will seach around for the number to the funeral home who handled her remains if its listed on her death certificate,please edit and tell us the name which will help us find a phone number or address for the funeral home or at least gives a place to look for her funeral record.

*Death Records, Pre-1898
No governmental agencies were required by law to record deaths prior to 1898. Though not required to do so, some municipalities, such as Salt Lake City and Ogden, registered deaths prior to 1898. For other areas of Utah, try cemetery and burial records, newspaper obituaries, or private family and church records.*

Well thats disappointing and here I thought I had a lead, sorry
I’ll keep hunting.

    Hello,

    Sorry, the only thing I can tell you, 4-sure is that all the surnames mentioned are DEFINITELY English/British. (You probably allready know that) These days, with "National Security" (yeah, right) being more "bureaucratic&assine" than ever, records that go that deep are probably "balled up to the MAX w/RED TAPE"!!! However, I wish you the best of luck in your "quest".

    DO let me know if you get the results you’re seeking!
    Sincerely, Catnip
