WWII death certificate
« on: Tuesday 16 June 20 19:16 BST (UK) »
I am researching a OVERSEAS death in WWII in 1945. FindMyPast gives a War Death McFarlane J ref 214 SQDN 1945 Volume 10 Page 53. I get no result on the GRO. What am I doing wrong?  I used to get these regularly but seem to have forgotten how I did it!!

Go to the FAQs on the GRO website:
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/faq.asp

Section 9 is Certificate types.
2nd example/form is for Overseas Records.
