Hi
I am looking for the death of Violet Downs died jan 1953 aged 50.Lambeth/London.
This info was given to me by a relative but i am not sure of its accuracy as i have tried to look into this myself , without success.
I am hoping, by looking at the death index, to find an exact date of birth, and location of death.

Thank you in advance.

Michelle,

the death index only gives you the month (or quarter) of death.

If you want the exact date of death you will have to buy the death certificate from www.gro.gov.uk

It will cost you £7
