If my Grandad Henry Dipple sometimes known as Henry George Dipple died in America would it be listed here or in America or in both, if America how do I search their death records.
Thankyou, Maggie

Hi Maggie:

I've seen British citizens listed on Ancestry (starting in the 1940's, I believe).

Would you like me to take a look?

Hi Lisa, He was my Great Grandad and he died between 1898 when he married his second wife Fanny Jane Randall and 1914 when she remarried and her certificate said she was a widow. Can't find him anywhere.

If you have his date of birth please, I can look on Ancestry for records in America.

Didn't see him in Canada in 1901 (although I didn't try all variations of the surname):

Not finding him anywhere. Have you tried google searches? If not, may I ask where he was born, please?

Also looked on inGeneas; he's not there, but most of their records are for an earlier time frame:

(Only looked, in case he went to Canada.)

Sorry, don't see anything on Ancestry. (I've missed a few before, though.)
