PETER PENDLETON born 1852 Huyton

[polly]

Hello there - I have lots of information from all censuses on my great grandfather Peter Pendleton, including birth, marriage, names of his children and his parents. What I can't find anywhere is his death. There is a death recorded of a Peter Pendleton in Prescot but it isn't him. He walked out one day (in 1920s) and never returned and wasn't seen again. The family rumour is that he was murdered. He was living at the time with his daughter Jane and her husband Harry Barton. Any information, clues etc gratefully received.

Thanks in advance! Polly
