Long shot I know, but can anyone tell me please, if it is possible to find the death record of:-

WILLIAM EDWARD WILLIAMSON, b. 1874, Salford, Lancashire, who emigrated to South Africa in the 1920's ?

Sorry rutti !

I said it was a long shot - that's all I have I'm afraid.

Ok - There are no death records for any william Edward in the national archives, which is the most comprehensive database to search - will see what else i can find.

Wow !! Rutti

Thanks for looking I didn't think it would be possible given the meagre amount of info I have.

William definitely went out there in the 1920's.  He went with or through an Engineering firm here is Lancashire and was married (possibly had children later in life).

The only link I have here is a very old relative whose memory is not very good now so that avenue is virtuallly closed.

Many thanks
