My GG grandmother-Millie Hill was born in Thorne 1871 (illegitimate). Her mother was Ann Hill-born in Thorne Union Worhouse 1847 (illegitimate). Her mother was Milicent Hill born 1828-Milicent died 1849 on Ellison Street of T.B. Millicent's mother was Nancy Hill-this is where I have hit the brick wall. I can't find Nancy's maiden name to be able to research further. She was born in Thorne 1799, according to 1851 census-she was married to John Hill. Thank you in advance to anyone that can help.

Comments: I am trying to find the death certificate for Leyrik (born Veltrop), Maria Tecla, who died at age 33 in Thorne in 1915. From the index on familysearch, she is on England and Wales Death Registration Index 1837-2007 volume 9C page 1234 line 141. Is there a way to view the death certificate online, or a procedure to get a copy of her death certificate?

I'm looking for all sorts of information and photo's of Mr. Hannes Koppens who is a Dutch ancestor of me. I'm researching my genealogy. Mr. Koppens must have been a resident of Moorends Thorne somewhere between 1895 and 1920.He was working in the peat mining industry and he had a wife and children. If anyone could help me with information it would be greatly appreciated. THanks in advance,
