My gt grandmother, Harriet Dennis (nee Williams) was born in 1883. She is still alive in 1921 when her last child was born. I cannot find a death cert for her however. I do not know when, or even roughly when she died, so it could have been 1922 or 2002 for all i know. Can anyone help?

Birmingham born, married, and died.

You need access to the FULL BMD's on either Ancestry or Findmypast.

A very long trawl through the images, year by year and quarter by quarter.

Without some idea of when she died it would be a very long job for some one

Didn't find anything 1984-2005 but didn't really expect to.

Searched 1922-1957

Don't know if this little girl is related:
1922 Q2 Harriett E. Dennis AaD8 Tamworth.

There is a Harriett Dennis in Birmingham in 1932 but she's 81.
**1937 Q4 Harriett E. Dennis AaD 54 Coventry vol.6d pg.757** (closest I've found)
