      Details from death registration (GRO register entry)
      The informant for the death registration was one "Elizabeth Keeling, present at the death" - probably this was Henry's sister whose married name this was, but it could have been his niece, who married a week or two after Henry's death, was was still a Keeling at the time.
      (His death cannot have been at The North Staffordshire Royal Infirmary in Hartshill, as this only opened in 1869, but was presumably at the one that the Hartshill Hospital replaced)

      Baptisms of Mary to Herbert indicate these were the 9 to 13th children of William and Sarah.
      Of the earlier 8 I have found evidence of 7.

    • GRO ref: Gething, Henry to Cobden, Ann q1 1847 Newcastle L RD 17 115
      (Newcastle T written next to Ann's name, and although the vol. is clearly XVII 2 transcribers had transcribed it as XXV at the time I looked at FreeBMD, 2 Jan 2015)

      Actual date and place from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 2 Jan 2015).
      Henry and his father's surname was written as Gething, I guess in error.
      Strangely, he appears to have signed 'Henry Gotham', then crossed out the Gotham and written Gething.
