[List-Cumbria] Scottish Death Certificate 1855 Thomas CRANMER

[Petra Mitchinson]

Scottish certificates are more informative than English ones, but in 1855 they are just awesome!

 

I came across this one today - not exactly a relative (just a paternal great grandfather of the wife of a 4th cousin once removed of
my husband) but it has a Carlisle connection - anybody lost a Thomas CRANMER from Carlisle born about 1782?
