thanks ann

The modern certs give the maiden name as well as the married name

Here you go



The deceased's occupation, or the name and occupation of the husband
If a married or widowed woman, date and place of death
Name, address and family relationship (if any) of the informant
Age, date and place of birth
Usual address
Maiden name if a married or widowed woman (from 1 April 1969)
Cause(s) of death.

Would be her married name....not sure now if her maiden name is also added.

thanks ann I didn't want to order a cert if it didn't have the info on I needed

would it be her married name or her birth name

I hope I don't sound thick there as I have never got one before

Since civil registration became mandatory on July 1st 1837, death certificates had the following information on them. A persons date and place of birth, their full name, male/female, their given age, his or her occupation, profession or rank, the cause of death and duration of their last illness. The name and address of the informant was on there as well as their relationship to the deceased, and where and when the death was registered. In 1969 the deceased usual address was recorded as well.
Up until 1953 here in the UK a death had to be registered within 8 days, that was reduced to 5 days in 1953, that remains the same now.

can anyone tell me what sort of info is on a death cert ie 1983
apart from the obvios ie date and cause lol
thanks val
