I'm looking for the death of Edward Charles Taylor. He was born in 1910 Swanage and I believe he died in Swanage. He married Emily Lavinia Frances Gird. Sorry no date. His parents were Alfred Henry Taylor,mother maiden name was Edith Mary Horlock.
Many thanks.

The marriage was
Jan/Feb/Mar 1935
Wareham
Ref 5a 499
Edward C Taylor to Emily LF Gurd

Thanks but I really would like the death date and year.
-
Cant immediately pinpoint his death , Edward Taylor being a common name
Emily L F Taylor dies in 1957 in Poole Registration District age 45

For some reason I can't find him. I have found all his other brothers and the one sister. I've looked on free BMD, I have a monthly membership with Ancestry and I can't find him there.
-
Perhaps he wasnt in Swanage when he died. There are numerous Edward Charles Taylor, or Edward Taylor deaths that could be possibilities.
-
You could be right. I spoke to my sister last night, she thinks he died in Surrey. I'll have to have another look.
Thanks for all your help.

There is this one in Surrey
Sept 1971
Surret Northern
Ref 5g 358
Edward Charles Taylor
age 61
dob 21 March 1910
Do you know the dob for "your" one?
-
He was born in 1910. I think he died in the 60's.
-
My sister has just phoned and thinks it could be Surrey or Sussex. Sorry to mess you around.

You are going to need to some more definite facts to pursue this.
For example, if you have his birth cert, and his dob is 21 March, then that Surrey one looks likely. So that might be the next step, to get his birth cert.
You could send for that death cert, but it might not confirm if it is your one or not, after all his wife has already died so she wont be the informant to give you a clue. Did he have children who may have registered the death, and thus help?
