Looking for Hans Petersen |
Nisse | Hans Petersen or Hans Petersen born 1849 or 1850 died between 1887 and 1897, where can I find out this information about his death. He was married an English women Fanny Twigg in 1879 in Hull. |
Jo Anne Sadler | Where was he born and where did he die, where did he live[?] |
Nisse | Hans Petersen was born in Tune Sogn. He lived in Hull. Aunts have told me he died in Hull between 1887 and 1897, however, I only have evidents that he died in this time frame not where he died.

Brining | Hi The 1881 British census has a Fanny M Peterson, sailors wife age 23 [url="http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/census/household_record.asp?HOUSEHOLD_CODE=1881BR_5016591&HOUSEHOLD_SUB=1&frompage=5"]Click Here[/url] no Hans listed though.
England also has a 1901 census on line [url="http://www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk/"]click here[/url] There are a couple of possibilities for Fanny.
If you click on the useful links button on the home page at that site, there is a link to a database of marriages, births, and deaths. It is a subscription site but they have a free trial. You might be able to find something there. I haven't tried it so can't say good, bad or indiferent [8D]

Nisse | Thank you Carla. Fanny died in 1897. The Fanny M Peterson you found is the correct person. Frances M is her daughter. Fanny and Hans had two other children, Albert and Sorine. It seems most of what happened with this family dodged around the census both in England and Norway. |
