FreeBMD death

'Halbury' may Albury, near Ware or Aldbury near Berkhamstead (where there
was a John Stone born 1855). Note that the ages in 1901 and at his death are
different... they could both be wrong!

I can't pin him down anywhere else. No marriage to a Jane. There's a John
Stone known to be living with other Gypsies in Deptford St Paul, London in
the 1881 census, born about 1848 in Dover, Kent that may be him as well.

Good luck!

Val
