<title>Arthur Curtis of Minsterworth (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, welcome to the forum.<br />
Despite searching the PRs I&#039;ve not yet found this burial,  altho there are a couple of other Curtis burials at Minsterworth before and after Arthur&#039;s so one hope&#039;s it is there somewhere.<br />
That said, this site&#039;s database has many thousands of PRs, but only 3 Arthur Curtis, none in Minsterworth ?.</p>
<p>Is this your Arthur, from FreeBMD, Minsterworth is within Gloster Rural district so seems correct as far as I can tell, is the age correct ?</p>
<p><span style="color:#006;">Deaths Dec 1957 <br />
CURTIS  Arthur H  59  Gloucester R.  7b 577 <br />
</span><a href="http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl">http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl</a></p>
<p>This age seems a possible fit for the following Marriage from this site&#039;s PRs, but for MINCHINHAMPTON, are you certain of the Minsterworth burial ?.  (Minchinhampton is outside the Dean so no PRs in our database).</p>
<p><span style="color:#006;">Marriage Details</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#006;">Groom Surname Groom Forename Bride Surname Bride Forename District Parish Building   Year Register Entry<br />
CURTIS Arthur H YOUNG Elsie E Stroud Minchinhampton Holy Trinity  1921 C23/2 414</span></p>
<p>From GlosBMD  <a href="http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/bmd/SimpleSearch.aspx">http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/bmd/SimpleSearch.aspx</a></p>
<p><br />
From FreeBMD again, I think this Birth fits the above Burial, also the Marriage confirms GlosBMD.<br />
<span style="color:#006;"><br />
Births Jun 1898   (&gt;99%)<br />
Curtis  Arthur Hayes    Stroud  6a 324</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#006;">Surname  First name(s)  Mother/Spouse/Age  District  Vol  Page <br />
Marriages Dec 1921   (&gt;99%)  <br />
Curtis  Arthur H  Young  Stroud  6a 795<br />
Young  Elsie _  Curtis  Stroud  6a 795   <br />
 </span></p>
<p>HOWEVER FreeBMD also has this very similar Burial, which probably is a better fit(Stroud) for the above Birth &amp; Marriage ?). So two very similar lives to untangle..</p>
<p><span style="color:#006;">Deaths Dec 1961   (&gt;99%)<br />
CURTIS  Arthur H  63  Stroud  7b 573   <br />
</span></p>
<p>Ancestry suggests the Stroud man Arthur Hayes was born and resident in Nailsworth wrt 1901 Census, by 1911 the family are in Inchbrook, Stroud. </p>
<p>????</p>
<p>Any more info you can give to clarify your Arthur&#039;s life would be very helpful, thanks.</p>
