Hubby's great grandfather was killed during the first world war. We found him on CWGC website and we've even been to France to visit his grave. |

You will probably have more information from the CWGC site than you will get on the death certificate. |

Thank you for your replies. I was hopeing for a proper certificate, but if what I've just seen on Scotlandspeople is anything to go by, it's just a list. I think I'll save my money and not bother buying credits on the findmypast website. |
