Joy is right - try the local register office. Some are better than others. I try to complete a form if there is one online, otherwise just write with the details, enclose a cheque for £7 and an sae. They will usually search for the most appropriate death and either send it, or ring you up to check you want it. What they WILL NOT do is give you all the information on it over the phone for free. |

Thanks Joy :-) I had wondered about that. Do you ring them up/write to explain your dilemma? |

I've been blessed with common surnames in my family tree and sometimes even common forenames as well. :) |
