Name John Glanvill SMITH Relationship with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born East Stonehouse, Devon, England - From censuses
Baptised 24 Nov 1833 St. George’s Church, East Stonehouse, Devon, England - From DFHS transcribed data
Gender Male Occupation 1851 Woolcomber Occupation From 1861 to 1891 Mariner - In the 1861, 1871 and 1891 censuses, but shown as unemployed in 1871. Not found in the 1881 censuses - not at home with family, I guess because at sea.
Poor Law 1901 The Union Workhouse, Plymouth, Devon, England Resident in the workhouse Died Jun Q 1904 Plymouth Reg Dist, Devon, England - No likely death registration of a John G(lanvill) Smith, and it goes without saying identifying a John Smith is not easy!
This death registration seems a likely one:
GRO ref: Smith, John q2 1904 aged 70 Plymouth RD 5b 148
(right age, most likely RD)
No other reg of a John Smith of the right age in Plymouth, 1901-1933; one whose death was reigstered in q2 1917 aged 86 was close to the right age but I haven't found this John in the 1911 census, so his death being the 1904 seems more likely.
