Good afternoon Everyone, I am really sorry but I totally forgot i had started a thread here until recently watching a DNA documentary on TV.  Thank you all so much for your support thus far with all your knowledge and access to certain sites. My Great Grand Father John Williams did work on the GWR railway as a plate footman and his Wife Mary Perrin was indeed a dress maker. I understand that they may have had up to 7 or 8 children one of which being my Grand Father George Llewellyn Williams who was an Engineer born 13 Jan 1903 in Slough, Berks and his son, my Father John Llewellyn Williams born 26th Dec 1936 - died 7th Jan 2000. I would dearly love to find where my Great Grandfather and my Great Grandmother are buried because i assume it would have been in the Slough, Berkshire areas. Thanks everyone, Martin Williams

Have you obtained the above death certificate? This would give an address and the name of the informant. If not, and you want to obtain a copy you can order a PDF copy of the entry from the GRO which will cost £7
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/login.asp - you need to register

Might this be a possibility for John's death  :-\
