Did he marry?

Have any children?

If he had children then their marriage certs. would show if he was alive at the time they married which would narrow a death date down.

Hi Margee

No, no middle name I'm afraid - his birth certificate confirms he was born in the Kensington Infirmary - just trying to see if I can find anything for him possibly there :-)

Hi

I have just obtained a birth certificate for one of my relatives, however I cannot seem to find a death for him - he was born on the 10 Jan 1902, Kensington and his name is Edwin French, I know he was alive in 1911 as he is on the census but cannot find a death for him after that time.

Any help would be great :-D
