FAMILY HISTORY: NORRIS

THE LIFE OF JOSEPH EDGERLEY

 

Joseph Edgerley, like his brother Robert, never married. At the time of the 1901 Census he was 35 and living with his mother, brother Robert and sister Ann Alice.

He died on 8 May 1921 in the Lancaster Asylum, aged 53, and was buried in the churchyard of Christ Church in Charnock Richard on 13 May.

The only other information I have comes from The National Probate Index. Joseph did not make a Will so Administration of his estate was granted to his sister Ann:

 

Joseph Edgerley, of Hill Cottage, Charnock Richard, Lancashire, died 8 May 1821. Administration London
11 August 1921 to Ann Alice Edgerley, spinster. Effects: £1481 14s 7d

 

NOTES:
1: The Lancashire Record Office does not hold copies of Administration Bonds granted in London.
2: The above information is taken from the Nation Probate Index at the Lancashire Record Office.
