Im looking for my GG grandfather Morgan Charles death certificate. He was born in 1871 in Bridgend, Wales and he was definately still alive in the 1930's because my grandfather can remember him being around. He probably died in the Neath/Port Talbot but have no idea when Can someone help please

Hi,
I wondered if there might be a possibility of him being in the  phone books on ancestry.co.uk (free in most libraries + 14 day free trial online). If he is then that will pinpoint the area he was in before he died.
Otherwise it's a case of going through, year by year, on a site like ancestry, searching every quarter in every year through the death indexes - it can be done! Just start with the oldest age he could have been and work backwards.
Hope this helps.  Good luck.

Morgan Charles married Pollie Mary Pontin, daughter of Ambrose Pontin. They had at least tfour sons, Leonard, Charles, David and Cyril. If you are descended from one of these we are cousins removed.

Hi Charles

It is a big task to search all the quarterly returns for thirty years to find a death - but that's what you would need to do!

I wonder if there is anyone left alive in your family who might be able to give you a closer approximation of the date?

Otherwise you could try the electoral rolls for the dates in question - available on some pay-sites, I believe.

Sorry not to be able to offer more concrete assistance.

Kind regards, Arranroots

Finally! I know this is an old post but Id just like to say that I found Morgan's death record after a long time going through each quater like arranroots said (starting in 1932)... I found him in the april,may,june quater of 1956! really didnt think he lived so long, so Ive orderd this certificate and it should be with me in a few days    thanx for everyones input.
