GRO area code for BKM
« on: Tuesday 28 August 07 02:14 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find a relative's death certificate on findmypast.  He died in the 1950s, probably in Buckinghamshire.  I'm trying to narrow down the possibilities (he had a very common surname) so it would help if I knew the GRO area code for Bucks at the time.  As far as I can see Bucks was from 1837 to 1851 numbered VI, from 1852 to 1946 it was 3a.  Can anyone tell me what it was after 1946?
