Hi all
I have a friend in Amsterdam who is currently doing a transcription project for her local archives. She came across a death in Amsterdam of a woman from Hull in England. Obviously if anyone in the UK is researching this person, the chances of them ever looking for her death in Netherlands is slim to impossible I would say!So she sent me all the info over on the chance it might make a family tree enthusiast very happy one day if they come across it.
And here's where I need some help! Any ideas where best I could post the information/death cert? I thought this site might be the best but don't know what category would be most suitable??
Thanks in advance, Karen
