Member Since: October 2005 Posts: 13 Send Message	my great grandfather died between 1901 to 1911. i was told by an aunt that he died from t.b. as i seem to have trouble tracking down a death certificate for him in the area that he lived. would it be that his death was in a different area altogether. On the 1901 census he lived at 107 ynyscynon rd civil parish of ystradyfadog wales. i cant find any information on contagious diseases? help would be fantastic. thanks
