Percival was born 1884 in Camberwell I have found him between 1915 and 1936 coming in out of the counrty from South Africa. I cannot find a death for him in England. Does anyone know where i could look for his death in South Africa thank you Maddie

Have you seen his Army papers , he enlsted in 1915 . In 1919 he claimed passge money from Rhodesia so seems to have lived there more than England.
He also asked to be repatriated back to Southern Rhodesia

I found him...via the site posted by Colin https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/list#page=1®ion=AFRICA
He's in the Zimbabwe death registers in the section of surnames BH - BY and he is on image 13 of 42. No idea of what the numbers mean by his name, but he is shown as BONNARD Percival Hunten D.R..63 / 108 7800
No other BONNARDs listed

thank you all so very much I will look at the links maddie
|
Maddie,
You should be able to find an image of his death notice, which shows quite alot of information, but I am struggling to find the correct image, ( the numbers should help, but don't seem to :-( )
I hope you have more success than me.
Gwyn

Hi Gwyn i could only find a page with reference numbers on I don't even know what year it was thanks anyway Maddie
|
Maddie
That is the death index. Using the numbers written there one should be able to go to the death registers in another nearby section
My husband has found alot for his family there recently using this system and says 63 refers to the volume number. I think it's going to be trial and error to find him there though.

Hi Gwyn I must be stupid i keepending back at the same place i click on death register but same image comes up where is the other section sorry to bother you maddie
|
right now found the register but if vol 63 pg 108 it is a female
maddie
|
No problem. I'll guide you through to where he should be,.... but I still haven't found what you need.
In theory we should be able to go to Volume 63 then go to certificate entry 108. This is not necessarily the same as the image number. ,but once you get an image of a record on screen you can see a handwritten number on the top of the paper ( towards right hand side usually ) That is the number given in the death INDEX.
I tried this with a randomly picked name and then checked his number in the index and it worked just fine, ...but doesn't seem to work for Percival.
Anyway....... Follow Colin's link to take you to Familysearch pages then click on Zimbabwe Death Registers and Death Index (second from bottom link) On new page click on browse images. Next page click on Death Registers ( last link on list)
New page will offer groups of years, so we should be able to find him in 1942 which is for Volume 63
but I'm struggling and can't see him.
Please tell me if you find him !

thanks colin how did you sus it was page 134 found it so he died in Jo-berg not Rhodesia interesting man maddie
|
AT LAST !
Good job Colin is here to guide us.... Thanks.
Not nearly so much on this registration as I've seen on others, but at least you've got him. I'll amend the guide before others use it to go on their own wild-goose chase.

i know shame really Would love to know what he did in Rhodesia he was a secretary for the British South African Company 1915 to about 1930 backwards and forwards to England and fought in 1stworld war got all his army history though Have googled it but most of it is military thanks for all your help
maddie
|
good idea Gwn if you have never seen those records before they are difficult compared to the rest of family search once again thanks for everybodies help
just for interest his brother died aboard the Hip Sang in 1923 in China maddie
|
Bit of a clue maybe Maddie...have a google on below name think this was something to do with gold.
The Times, Friday 19th November 1937

|
hi Chris sorry can't find what you have what combination did you use regards Maddie
|
Hi all please can i ask for your advice again, assuming Pericval married Dorothy naomi Wyatt just before his death in 1942 : I have found on the incoming passenger list 2/11/1946 and out going list 1947 the following Dorothy naomi Bonnard born 1906 resident South Africa Richard Hunter Bonnard born 1939 John Anthony Bonnard born 1941
do you think these are his decendants or a coincidence and where do you think they could fit in forgive me as i am not a very good at googling unless it is simple, is there anywhere i can find south african bmd
thank you maddie
