They do indeed have a lot more information on them, my Uncle born in Australia in 1930 and on his birth certificate it stated that he changed his name by deed poll to a female name, we knew he was homosexual and it meant I could contact his husband which I did so I had a lot more information from him but alas he my Uncle had died 5 years earlier so I never met him, anyway it meant I could confirm it was my Uncle and who his parents are.
Good luck with your research x

The Birth Certs also contain more information, Allan.

Florence, although living in Oz all my research has been in the UK where I am originally from.

I can make some enquiries for you.

I do know, from my father's death certificate, that they contain far more information than UK ones

You could try NLA, tell them as much as you know but I believe there is a 70 year closure period for death certificates.

Can any advise me on how I do a look up to get the exact details of a death in Australia in 2009/2010 and how can i get a copy if the death cert?

Is there anyone who has access to Australian records on here?

Any help appreciated
