I need some help please to trace a death for Thomas Marr originally from Easington, Co Durham. I have hit a brick wall trying to trace his death around 1966 he would have been around 21 years of age. I am lead to believe that he is my biological father.

I think you will have to pay to view Scottish records
try Scotlands people.

Researching:
For better results please give all the details ,name, date place as you can {pictures by me }

Thank you for trying Jean, it was a long shot, I am now led to believe he died in Liverpool in 1966 aged 21 as it's the only one that would fit.

AM,

I am sorry that none of the Thomas Marr deaths registered in Scotland that I suggested on your earlier thread seem to have provided an answer for you.

As you have been unable to locate a definite death record for him have you considered the possibility that he may not have died at the time and in the circumstances which you have been lead to believe?

P.S.
For anyone wishing to view the earlier thread here is its address

Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

Why have you asked for a look up after you were told what you needed to do earlier today?
