Nathaniel Smith m Margaret Murray Burnley 1852.
I will be most grateful for any info on my Margaret & Nathaniel.
A Margaret Smith aged 33 years died in Burnley Workhouse in 1866 (Margaret was born in 1833) but it's such a popular name. I'm hoping to find other evidence before I decide whether to order this death certificate.
