hi there,
Have been told somewhere, that if they died in ww1 that all the death cert shows is that they died and not much more information. Usually the medal record cards tell you the date of death and where they died. Try The A2A website for this information or the commonwealth war grave commission for the information and they will tell you where they are buried. same as WW2 too
Thanks

Hi,
I'm just wondering if someone died while in the millitary and their death is registered with the millitary where can I get a copy of the death cert? Do I still use the millitary reference for the GRO? Or do I order it somewhere else.
Thank's
Mandy
