could it have been a mining accident ?

thanks for answering, were only guessing as he died in 1918 that it was the war, and he was the right age to go.will have to buy the death cert.

what makes you suspect a mining accident?

wasn't he down as miner on sons marriage cert? or did i read that wrong.
You don't usually have a cert if they died in the war unless he was home and died of injuries. When did John Robert die?

If you can find out about the year of death then the index may confirm a birth age/year(of course this is only good if the person reporting the death knows for certain the dead persons details!)
