I am trying to find out when my uncle died, he was born 25/6/1913, Newmarket, North Wales, I think he died around the late 1960's early 1970's, his parents names were Moses Roberts and Fanny Jones. He might have died in Rhyl.

Hi all maybe just me, I cannot locate a birth Hugh O Roberts in time scale mmn Jones, I can find one mmn Owen?
But he was possibly born 28th March 1913 and died 1971 Holywell?

I have Hugh Owen Roberts birth certificate, his parents were married in the April and Hugh was born in the June, I can verify the parents names that are mentioned are my Grand Parents, my Gran died 1967, Hugh was still alive then. I have had the 1971 death checked out, it isn't him. Not sure where to go from here.

Possibility
Full birthdates weren't shown on deaths pre-1969
Hugh O Roberts aged 51 Mar 1965 Ruthin 8a 422

birthdate was 25.6.1913 - mmn Owen - not Jones and nothing fits in September qtr
Births June qtr 1913

Hugh Owen Roberts, 25/6/1913, High Street, Newmarket, North Wales.

Could he be the Hughie C Roberts Sept qtr 1913 Holywell? GRO index confirms Hughie but the C could be an O - mmn is Jones

Definitely not him. Very frustrating.

Definitely not him. Very frustrating.
Ann
So could you give us full details of the birth certificate you have?

my Gran died 1967, Hugh was still alive then
How do you know? Did he report her death?
Did he marry? If so - when and to whom?

The possible death for Hugh Owen Roberts, 28 March 1913, Dec 1971 Holywell 8A 2492
The dob is dependent on who the informant was.
Do you have the actual death cert, what doesn't match?

The problem is that Ann has the birth certificate but not his death, the problem with this one is that I believe he is the son of Hugh Thomas Roberts who married Dorothy Owen Sept qtr 1902 Bangor 11b 716?
Wondering if he was in WW2 and died abroad?

But is seems to fit the criteria and not sure why OP hasn't answered the question that you asked twice about full details of birth cert.
Sept Q would be appropriate for a late June birth.

There's a Hugh Roberts, d. 23 April, 1968. Buried Maeshyfryd Cemetery, Rhyl. Million Graves cemetery index. No age given.
I can't link it up to a death reg at the moment.

Just looked at the link and he was 82 so too old.

The information that is on the birth certificate, Hughie Owen Roberts, 25/6/1913, High Street Newmarket. There is a number in the 1st column no67. Parents Moses Roberts and Fanny Jones. The birth wasn't registered until 2/8/1913.
I don't have my Grans death certificate, I do have the grave stone which verifies when she died.

So that is the same that was found

:) OK so even though the heading states Hugh Owen Roberts we possibly should be looking for a Hughie Owen Roberts?

I have looked at the certificate closer. Just heard from a relative that Hughie was the witness at my Grans death, 1967.
Ann
-
so could he be buried in the same cemetery? or even in the same plot.
You would need to ask the cemetery for that information.
-
Could you ask your relative who has the death cert what name he gave as the informant (Hugh Owen, Hughie Owen, H O) and his address at that time.
-
No he isn't, my gran and her daughter are buried in the same plot.
