How to find a death/burial date
« on: Monday 10 October 16 19:28 BST (UK) »
Hi, I wonder can someone tell me how to find when/where my great aunts died and where they may be buried. Their deaths would have taken place in the late 1970s-1980s. I know their last place of residence - names Emily and Mary (Ellen) Lowry (East Belfast). There is no living relative that can help me with this - will GRONI tell me?

Thanks for replies...I can get to Belfast, just didn't know if I could find out about deaths/burials less than 50 years old. I have tried the Belfast City burial records and none match although many other members of the family are buried there and I can find their records.

Hi

I believe you can see the records but you have to pay a £7 search feet to look at the
Down below shows the records you can access in the GRONI public search room. It won't tell where they are buried though it will just give the date of death

Civil registration type

Date span

What can I view for these records?

Birth 1 Jan 1997 to current information recorded in text format only
Death 1 Jan 1864 to 31 Dec 1996 an image and index information

World War II deaths 1939 to 1954* an image and index information
Marriages 1 Apr 1845 to first quarter 2004 an image and index information

Hope this helps you

Once you have a death date, archived local papers may have a report of the funeral/obituary with details of burial place. Would cremations have been a possibility?

Hello,

I hope you don't mind me using your topic.

I was wondering if someone visiting the GRONI search room in Belfast would be able to search some more recent births and deaths for me?

I'd be very grateful for your time and help!

Patrick
