England and Wales, Civil Registration Death Index : April 1971  - gives his birth year as 1931

I fear a tragic story here as both Alvin and daughter died the same day!!

They were found dead at their home, his wife & 3 other children were alive and well.

Another report says foul play was ruled out

If Idwal really wishes to know the cause of death, then obtaining the death certificate is the only way.

Deaths Jun 1971   
WILLIAMS    Alvin    29Au1931    Gloucester C    7b   1115

I think this is the daughter as newspaper stated she was four years old and the page number is the same as her father's.

Deaths Jun 1971
WILLIAMS    Marion Elaine    7Ja1967    Gloucester C    7b   1115
Ashford: Somerset, London
England: Devon, London, New Zealand
Holdway: Wiltshire
Hooper: Bristol, Somerset
Knowling: Devon, London
Southcott: Devon, China
Strong: Wiltshire

Perhaps next time that Idwal looks at this post they can give us some feedback as to whether we have answered their query or they are still after more information.  I see that they were online earlier today  :)

Discrepancy with Alvin Lesley Williams d.o.b. his death certificate is showing he was born in 1931, however his marriage certificate for 1966 gives his age as 38, therefore giving his birth year as 1928. Which one is correct?

Age on death certificates generally depends on the knowledge of the informant.  ADDED _ He would have given the information for his marriage certificate

As you have a copy of the marriage certificate could you please give the details for his father, also who were the witnesses
