Member Since: January 2005 Posts: 58 Send Message	I would like to know what is included on the death certificate. I am looking at Robert Broughton District Erpingham Volume 13 Page 65. March 1841 quarter. Will it have more than the church burial's record?. Thanks for any help Pat

	It all depends on what is exactly known or not known by the informant :-) The following site is useful - http://www.thosedixons.net/certificates/deaths.html The usage and interpretation of each entry on the Death Certificate is explained in turn along with any historical alteration that may have happened and examples.

	well the cause of death would be stated and the informants name may well be a family member.
