Stocks Benjamin 78 Huddersfield 9a 243
According to the Job W Stocks biography, Benjamin and his wife were buried at their old home.
Benjamin lived and was cared for by his brother Job before he died. According to some family letters, they even shared the same bed.
It seems Benjamin went into a neighbours house, and must have sat in a draft, for when he came home he was complaining of feeling chilly and cold, and later on that night he was seized with pain in his breast and gradualy grew worse up to his death on Friday morning, about 11 O'clock when he died. (See letter from James and Alice Boothroyd).
