Death cerificates for George and Elizabeth Davis in August and September 1881 show that they both died aged 85 and 83 at Bradfords, Newent RSD. A John Medley/Hedley was present at both deaths.

Would this be a nursing home/hospital run perhaps by John Medley?

Thanks for any help

I've got the Bradfords Lane on my map, but with the same person present at the deaths, and the ages of both, i'm presuming it was a home/institution or such like (unless the person was possibly a friend?). I'll keep on looking.

Thanks
Mike
