Good afternoon,
I'm sorry if I'm asking a silly question but I subscribe to Ancestry.co.uk
and am looking for births marriages and deaths after 1901.
For example,I am trying to find my Dad's uncles' death.I know he was alive in 1916 because his son was killed in action and he's mentioned
on the Commonwealth war graves site as being the father (and not the late father)
He was born in 1868 so into the search boxes I put 'lived between 1916 and 1968' hoping it will find anyone of that name between 1916 and 1968.It comes up with entries between 1984 and 2004 but nothing between 1916 and 1968.
I don't really want to trawl through all the books quarter by quarter
but it looks as though I'll have to.
Thanks in advance
