My GGG-Grandmother (Catherine Sutherland) died in 1891. Her death certificate states the location she died as Durness Street, Thurso with no street number. Does anyone now if there was a hospital on Durness Street in 1891? I can't find any family member living on Durness Street at this time. Just trying to find out a little more about my family, if she was living there or in a hospital.
Thanks,
L. Sutherland
There was no hospital in Durness Street, so your ancestor died in her home. My great grandfather, James Durran, a master shoemaker, and his family lived in Durness Street from 1871 to 1900. My grandfather was born there in 1870. There was no house number indicated on the census returns.

Thank you so much for your response. This gives me the additional information I needed. I will try to find who she was living with.
Take care,
