Lots of answers on your other thread Kelsey which you have returned to. Best to keep to one thread about the same family to save members from duplicating information. Just add your further request about the same people/family there.

I'm struggling to track down a death certificate for a husband and wife, Charles Nilsson (b. About 1858 in Sweden) and his wife Catherine Fellows (b. About 1868) in Yorkshire. I have no idea when Charles came to the UK or if he came alone or with family and I'm struggling to find ANY info on him at all really. I have the 1891,1901 & 1910 census. His wife is abscent from the 1910 census and a housekeeper named Catherine takes her place. He is listed as having had 7 children born alive but only 4 still living in 1910. I have the names of all his children but again struggle with finding birth/death/marriage records for them. Ill list their names below. I don't know if possible the spelling of their surname changed over the years to a more phonetically spelling, possibly Neilson instead of Nilsson? I just don't know. I know that Charles' father was called John but that's it. I'd really really love to learn more about the Swedish side of my family so any help would be MASSIVLY appreciated.
