Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 45 Send Message	I would like to apply for her death certificate, but I do not know the relevant reference number. I do not know her maiden name. She was married to Joshua KEEN. They lived in Monks Riseborough, Buckinghamshire, so I guess she died somewhere thereabouts. Can anyone help? Janine
