Death Lookup
« on: Friday 23 July 10 07:40 BST (UK) »
I am not sure whether this person died in Wales, but I thought I would start here as the research has been mostly in Wales.

I am looking for the death registration of a David A DEATH/DE'ATH or variation.

He was born in 1913 in the Bedwelty registration district.

In this particular family there was a David J DETH born in 1915 Bedwelty registration district, this is the direct line.
Looking at all maiden names of SIMS in the birth registration from bedwelty between 1911 and 1925 there appears to be also a David A DEATH.

I am wondering whether the first David born 1913 died and then the other child born in 1915 was named David as well, it happens.  Hence my request with help to look for a death for the David 1913.

There is a death of a David Alfred DEETH in 1975 Gwent, born 15 February 1913.

Many thanks
Ewan

If you haven't found any other Death/De'Ath/Deeth registrations the 1975 one looks likely, but you'll only know if you send off for it.

Are the births for David J Deth and David A Death both with maiden name Sims?
Chowns in Buckinghamshire
Broad, Eplett & Pope in St Ervan/St Columb Major, Cornwall
Browning & Moore in Cambridge, St Andrew the Less
Emms, Mealing & Purvey in Cotswolds, Gloucestershire
Barnes, Dunt, Gray, Massingham in Norfolk
Higho in London
Matthews & Nash in Whichford, Warwickshire
Smoothy, Willsher in Coggeshall & Chelmsford, Essex
