Does anyone know what's the best way to find a death record when you have a large range of years to search? Eg: Father deceased by the time of marriage and no access to census between child's birth and marriage. Hope this makes sense. Lynne |

It's all a bit hit & miss Lyn, but you just might get lucky. www.familysearch.org has lots of this info, but also post a request for help on the Records board, give as much detail as you have got, lots of folk there to lend a hand, including me Sam |

The NBI and familyhistoryonline(.)com are patchy but have turned up valuable information several times for me. |

Lynne I think it depends on roughly when the person died - before or after 1837? Helen |

If you have time to spare you could visit your nearest large library or archive and trawl through all the deaths on the GRO index. You can do this free (whereas you would spend a lot on 1837online). It is a bit tedious but you get quicker as you go on! Anne |
