Name James ROBINSON Relationship with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1779 Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England - Date from shown as 62 in 1841 census, place assumed from baptism
Baptised 21 Mar 1779 All Saints’ Church, Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England Gender Male Occupation From 1841 to 1855 Ag lab - 1841 census and Amy's dth cert described him as ag lab
Died 19 Feb 1851 Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England - It seems either:
James didn't die in Guiltcross RD (he needn't have died at home),
OR the entry was wrongly recorded,
OR the entry was mistranscribed
The death of a James Robertson was recorded in Guiltcross RD in Q1 1851 (13 122) - could this be this James? - now I've found his burial record I'm more-or-less certain it must be.
Death certificate for James Robinson (b 1779)
Although the certificate shows James Robertson, the fact that there is no death registration of a James Robinson, that the death was in Old Buckenham and most convincingly that it was 6 days before James Robinson was buried shows that it was just a clerical error.
(The GRO index shows Robertson, so it is not just an error on the copy I purchased)Buried 25 Feb 1851 All Saints’ Church, Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England - PR entry shows James Robinson as abode Old Buckenham, age 71 years, Thomas William Thompson, Officiating Minister. No cause of death given as it was for most at this time.
