Could somebody tell me how I find deaths after 1900? On the ancestry website it only appears to go up to about 1909 and I am trying to find a death in the 1960's. Thankyou, Jackie.

Ancestry's searchable database goes up to 1910, its the same as Freebmd. To search after that date, you need to look at the England and Wales beta index, but you will have to search each quarter and year separately. nell
