Are you sure the death index Alex posted 4th Jan is not the one you are looking for?

Donna Report 7 Jan 2011 18:30

I've looked and i can't see any that match and the records that are on here that the DEATHs are recorded i cant find any to match with my uncle jack. i've looked on freebmd and i can't find it on there. I guess i have to ask my cousin and aunt again. there are so many sites to view to access these records but most of them you have to sign up and pay for i'm on to sites allready this and ancestry

Donna, are you confusing census with BMD records?

Census only go up to 1911 and are records of households - addresses and who lived in them.

Donna

Donna Report 7 Jan 2011 17:30

AlexWoozle what i meant is that i couldn't find a record of the death on the census i know that it will not show the details but i'm going to ask my aunt and cousin again

Donna - what do you mean by looking on the census for his death? You wont find a. death details on a census, or b. censuses available past 1911 for England & Wales...

Jan is right - you should order the death certificate, although I am aware that ordering certs for events which fall within the last 50 years you do tend to need to be able to provide more information to be able to order...

Certs cost £9.25

Donna, with the index details posted you can send for it, Tick GRO known -that is the vol. /page numbers. A cert cost £9.50 i think

John Young is a pretty common name, so trawling for a marriage for him would take some time.

I think it would be good if you could get more info on his 5 children to try and find their births and then trace the marriage of the parents from the mothers maiden name given.

So is it Jack that was born in 1912 and died in 1980? There are no deaths for a Jack Young born 1912, died 1980 in Manchester area.
