Good morning support group! Yes, a lovely sunny day here. Thanks for checking in. Well, I am planning to order that death cert today. If no result from that, and WayneTracey still over-burdened, I shall look at doing some electoral register searching myself.
Watch this space!

Afternoon Lynn.
Thanks for popping back! I am now preparing to search 2010 census myself, and get that other death cert. Nothing if not determined!

I think I might send for the only other document left to me - the death cert of her brother in 1995. Then I shall have exhausted all possibilities!
Good to know people are still there. feels less daunting!

Quite right, Simon, a daft opening from me. And mother maybe. I think Jan knows me well enough to realise I was only giving a suggested tone to use, i.e. friendly and non-threatening or suspicious.

Don't shout at him Jan. I'm sure he meant well.

Hi Jan

If I were your relative I would be so happy to hear from you. Give it a go , you have nothing to lose, and both of you have a lot to gain. All the best of luck. Caroline

Have you ever posted on here Simon? Is this your concern? People are offering me encouragement so the less criticism the better thanks.

Oooh Madmeg!

Surely if the aunt is aged around 85 you wouldn't start the letter with "Hiya", would you?

I'd have thought that a rather more formal "Dear Mary" would have been better for someone of that generation. (;-) ... also, why not say "mother" rather than "Mam"?

... sorry, I'm in 'edit mode' today...
