Death dates on gravestones. Handy.
« on: Saturday 10 April 10 20:55 BST (UK) »
Especially after 1837 as they can take you to the right death cert entry.

My 2xgreat grandparents George and Martha Clift died on the 30th June 1962 and 29th January 1963 according to their gravestones. I obtained George's death cert. I would imagine Martha was buried in the first or second week of July 1962.
