Hello, can someone look for a possible death of a John T Harris after 1960 in the Heathfield area.

Sorry i dont know when he was born or where,it might have been around 1909 ish.

I am hoping it was in the Sussex / Eastbourne area.

Any help appreciated,

Many thanks MFM

The name is too common to be able to pinpoint a death without accurate birth info

How did you arrive at the name?

EDIT:

No death in Sussex for the name as given.

What name is represented by the second initial?

The only likely possibility that I can spot in that area but the birth year rather later.

Name: John Thomas Harris
Birth Date: 22 Dec 1919
Date of Registration: Apr 1998
Age at Death: 78
Registration district: Eastbourne
Inferred County: Sussex
Register number: A71E
District and Subdistrict: 4541A
Entry number: 261

Researching:
Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.
