death certificates
« on: Thursday 04 January 07 12:10 GMT (UK) »
Given the proliferation of David Williams and Elizabeth Williams dying in Cardiff between 1881 and 1891 how can I find the correct one without having to buy incorrect ones. Does anyone have any clues or hints they can give me.?

Hi
do you have them on the 1871 census ..What they did for a living, their age who would be their next of kin.
It does give age on freeBMD, .
My suggestion look at the possible ones and when you write to cardiff reg office give as much info as poss , there is a possibility they are living in the same house, also name of sons daughters who could have registered their death . cardiff Reg office are always helpfull.
cheers cardiff
