Post by: Zoe-Hannah on Friday 05 May 17 16:30 BST (UK)

Hi,

I am tying to find an article in the  North Wales Daily Post, the article is a public notices about Gordon Ritson Thomas,( he was my Uncle) he died 8th Feb this year, my mum rang me to get me to have a look online, but I have yet to find it, so was hoping someone could give if me ideas of how to find it, it was published on 24th April, I can't go to the North wales library in Rhy myself as I live over 200miles away, so any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated

Best regards

There is a public notice starting date 24th April, not a long or detailed piece, If you google his name it will come up, if you can t find it I can send a link.

Just google "Gordon Ritson Thomas" + "Daily Post" and you should get a version under www.bmdsonline.co.uk (I think)

I have put in Gordon Ritson Thomas and daily post as you suggested Roger, but that just came up with his Death Notice, which I already have.

Best regards

Do you want it sent privately? or shall I reply on this post? No sensitive content, just his former address and solicitors details.

If he died intestate and was either unmarried or a widower without children, whoever is handling his estate has to advertise for possible beneficiaries on his side.  Any relatives of his wife have no claim.

He had no children, divorced many yrs but not sure when he divorced, but living with someone at the time of death.

He did make a will, I know there was some issue with will, but not sure what something about 2 wills?, plus they issue a death certificate till a few weeks after he died.
