Hello Fandando,

What information do you already have with the Death Documents  ???

Any Idea on previous addresses or occupations of the brothers ?

*** thats what i was thinking.a death cert usually gives age at date of death
and where recorded. [unless its not a death cert that FANDANGO has but rather some other document.]
we await your reply,FANDANGO.

Hi I know my grandfather died in Hereford General hos on the 17 june 1951 his age given as 68 he is buried in Leominster but has no headstone, He was described as a farm labourer retired, when he was younger and his children being born they travelled throughout shropshire Lientwardine, Knighton and ivington herefordshire, when they finally settled it was in Leominster, His brother Arthur i believe was a Hawker and lived in Llanidloes Wales 1913-? finally ending up in Leominster him self, i have asked surviving relatives questions and all they come up with is that they were from wales , Arthur ended up with my grans sister and after looking for a marriage i pressume they copied my gran and grandad and never married, Arthur was killed in a hit and run accident nr Leominster in 1940 aged 65, ive even looked for jones families in 1881 to see if there is a connection with family names the only one i can find that might be connected ( long shot i know) is a John Jones and family living in Clase Glamorgan Wales, trouble is i dont have access to 1891 to see if an Alfred was born to them circa 1883, i will try anything and any help greatly appreciated.
