There are half a dozen death certs for 1921 but unsure which is his as haven't located a death index I only have a date.

Just choose 'no' for date of event range, and then put the death date into the search box.

Hello Debra,
That lead is amazing as I recently found that that the 2 deceased males born 1833 were I believe twin boys Thomas & William.
Thankyou soooo much  :) :) :) :) :) :)

Thanks Jamjar
I received the death cert & is def my William . Dundees lead for arrival of William 1877 on the Samuel Plimsoll ship  aged 22,seems to fit perfectly.Died age 66, about 45 years in NSW  from County Cork Ireland,groom.
There were 8 children,the first 2 deceased sons William & Thomas 1883were not mentioned.
Catherine Nimmos family were Presbyterian which explains the civil wedding ceremony & their children were raised Catholic.

Now to finding Williams parents in County Cork Thomas & ?
Many thanks for everyone's help.greatly appreciated.

Their son William is alive at the time of his father's death. I believe it is Thomas and Johns S who died in infancy.
