I am looking for the death of Frank Shuker born about 1892 Lanchester Durham, in 1911 he is at

49 North Street Esh Winning Durham age 18 single coal miner putter with his family,parents Ebenezer Shuker and Isabella Howells.
In 1918 is married Sarah Ward Durham. That is the last I can find for him, several siblings emigrated to Australia during the 1920's but I haven't found him emigrating.
Afew trees on ancestry have him s dying 1945 a colonel in the Cameronians regiment but I am certain that isn't the Frank I am looking for.

poss from consett forum did they move ?


Frank married Sarah Ward in 1918...there are then three children Leslie, David and Nora all born in Lanchester.

I can then find a David marrying in the Ampthill district in Bedfordshire in 1947 and having children.

Then there is a Frank Shuker dies in Ampthill in 1958 aged 65 ( ie born 1892) and then a Sarah Shuker dies in Ampthill in 1966 aged 77.

Think they are well worth a look, if its not them then there are some unlucky coincidences. Hope that helps

Thank you for the information about Frank, apart from the siblings who emigrated to Australia they seem to stay around the Esh Winning area but they could have moved to Bedfordshire.
