I am convinced that my Gt Grandmother is still alive! Born 1847. Definately alive in 1907. No record anywhere of a death! (or a re-marriage), Think she just wants to haunt me. Jill |

I assume that you have checked the indexes on the 1837 site? |

Hi Melvyn, Do you know where she died? It could be a simple matter of telephoning the relevent register office. Pam |

The National Burial Index is a list of burials from the 16thC to 2000. Not all areas are fully covered but I have found it very useful . You can use it at your local records Office or put a thread on the Records Office Board.......probably someone has theCDs at home. |
