Hi,i was wondering if anyone could help me? I'm trying to trace details of my great grandad George Heywood. He married my great gran Sarah Dulson before he went off to the first world war,but was killed in action. They had a daughter Georgina,but i dont think he ever got to meet her.She was born in 1915,and they came from Newcastle under lyme. Where would be the best place to trace records of his death?

Regards

julie
