Just to let everyone know, it looks like Christine died in 1999. Nik confirmed the date of birth is a match. I have suggested he orders the certificate with the hope that Dawn is the informant.

Rambing Rose

Have now received the death cert for a Christine Mary whiting.

Birth date is correct but place of birth states Leicester which goes against what i thought, but the reporting person was a Dawn Reece-Sumner. I have looked back at marriage records had have found a reece-sumner married a Harvey in 1993.

If i go back to the entry on this forum by a Dawn whiting looking for her brother there is also an entry the states Dawn Ellen Whiting (Harvey).

Getting close maybe????

Gary,

I wonder if Dawn has younger siblings with the Reece-Sumner surname?

There are 2 other people on 192.com with that surname. I found corresponding births with Whiting as the mother's maiden name.

The younger daughter is on Facebook.
