When you get the birth cert, you'll find out the woman's second forename to enable you to 'match' the death - or not

I have looked and cannot find the obituary for 2008.

Thank you Gwyn I will do that now, did it yesterday, but I was searching for the wrong date, thank you.

Understand now, thank you.

If you put Patricia's full name and Bridgend into a search, there is an obituary for 2008.

Perhaps the details there will help you decide whether or not that is the person you are researching.

It's just the way the record has been transcribed.

Searching for Patricia Howe, Bridgend, gives you a basic result with Brian also listed as another occupant, although his name isn't there when you click to see the address.

Searching for Brian - the basic result includes Patricia M Howe, and the address result lists Patricia Howe.

Patricia may have opted out of the public ER after 2002. It doesn't mean she wasn't with Brian.

Found the ER, thank you. She was there on her own in 2002, by the look of it.

Thank you AG, maybe I did just write the date down wrongly at the time. I will look at the ER.

The 2008 death looks very likely to me.
Everything fits (name, place, YOB), except that the date isn't what you expected.

Brian Howe is on the 2021 ER for Bridgend, with Patricia listed at the same address in 2002.

It could be Shirley, but its a bit out date wise, the area is right though.

Maybe I should wait to get the other certificates and have another look at then.

What about this one

HOWE, PATRICIA MARGARET 1943
GRO Reference: DOR Q1/2008 in BRIDGEND (8611A) Reg 1A002 Entry Number 500814857

Shirley, I wont know for sure until I get the birth and marriage certificate.

There were so many Patricia M Howes, and Cooks.

If she is Patricia Margaret she may be on her own in 2002 in Glamorgan electoral rolls
