Title: Leo Wilson death
Post by: quiffdo on Friday 08 September 17 21:41 BST (UK)
Hi

I have a family member that moved from Belfast to be closer to his daughter in the 1980's and died somewhere in Wales (I assume Swansea as that's where his daughter lived) in 1991.

There is a record on Ancestry For a Leo Wilson that died in 1991 but I cannot view it as I am not a member.
I wonder if someone could possibly locate this death as I really would like to know where he passed away.

Many thanks in advance

Danny

Leo was born in 1903 by the way.

Can't see anything that fits.

Presume this is your 1991 death - age and location not a match

Leo Wilson
Death Age:    76
Birth Date:    24 Jan 1915
Registration Date:    Jul 1991  [probate register say 2 July]
Wrexham Maelor Vol 24, p814

there's this - location right but date of birth and death not right, althuogh near, and a matching birth reg in Belfast

Leo Alphonsus Wilson
Death Age:    90
Birth Date:    11 Mar 1905
May 1995  Swansea
Register Number:    C112
District and Subdistrict:    8971C
Entry Number:    11

A few other Leo Wilson deaths, but nothing in the right birth and death range

Thank you Mabel

I have his birth as 3 Mar 1903 in Belfast and no place of death other than Wales but I have been told his dod was 12 April 1991.

I was given this info from a family member in Belfast.

Hi quiffdo,

It's not Leo who died in April 1991 but his wife Elizabeth.

If you PM me with your e-mail address I'll send you the clipping.
