Deborah must die 1825-1837.. Seemingly no burial on FMP
1841C.William Hollis , 55, ind., Mill Place, village of Shalfleet, I of W. - FMP
1851C . William Hollis , 68, retired baker, is living Old Poor House, Shalfleet, I of W, with a servant .- FMP
| William | Hollis | Head | Widower | Male | 68 | 1783 | Retired Baker | Shalfleet, Hampshire | |
| Caroline | Foy | Servant | Unmarried | Female | 26 | 1825 | House Servant | Hampshire, England |
So- see argument against 1860 death -
only other death is
1852. William Hollis dies Isle of Wight Sep 1852 . To be 100% certain that this is he, would need to find a burial with his age, or buy the d.c.!
[1860. Although Ancestry trees give him dying as William Hollis 7/3/1860 Shanklin - this CAN NOT be : this death is of a butcher and there was a 60 yr old butcher of the same name in 1851C in Newchurch , I of W . Thus I needed another death 1851-1861
