My Great Great Grandmother was a Mrs Mary Duffy. Who had been a widow named Mrs Mary Brown. Nee Mary Hind. I think this Mr William Duffy was her Second. husband. They had only been married for two years . I have tried to find William Duffy for about twenty years then I found their marriage certificate 1876 in Stockton then I found a mr William Duffy s death on the Bmd and sent for the certi and was so shocked to learn of such a dreadful death. I would like to know if this is my mr W Duffy and to to find out all about him . Would you please reply either way and I would love to have a clearer photo . Thank you so much from Margaret.
