Not sure of Death Index Page Number. RESOLVED.
« on: Thursday 25 September 08 11:58 BST (UK) »
Hi,
FREE BMD  can't make out the page number on a death index entry. FREE BMD has [95] 0,  I guess either 90or a 50.  I can't make it out from the scan either.
Could anyone tell me how would I order this cert from the GRO , do I give them both options ?
Hopiing someone can advise.
Thanks,
Pilly

Sometimes the image of the index is clearer on Ancestry. What are the details?

Hi Pilly,

If you give the full details, we can look at the GRO scan to see if it's clearer there.

Otherwise, apply to the GRO giving what details you can.  
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/
They say that if you have done your own searching in the GRO indexes and have found more than one reference to the name you are researching, or are unsure which is the entry you require, they offer reference checking online. The charge is £7 for action on the first entry, which includes the cost of the certificate, and £3 for checking each subsequent reference against the information you have provided.

Kind regards, Barbara

Looking at the index page, I would say the ref is
1c 90.

(just modified this - had a good look at other 9's and 5's on page!)
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex
