Just wondered if someone could tell me if this is possible.? In the Death indexes there is a registered death for someone born in November 1893. I checked for them in the Birth indexes, and they don;t exist, I tried all 4 quarters in the following year as well? Mark

Thanks Athena. I'm looking for Susan Milner from Don Valley. There is a death registered in the 2nd qtr of 1971. The only birth I can find is from 1950. The date of birth on the death registration is 8 Nov 1893. But no record of this birth exists. Could it be the same person who was born in 1950?? Mark

You don't make yourself very clear, Mark........ Are you saying that the death of Susan Milner is registered in 1971, giving her birth year as 1893? Also, are you saying that you can't find a birth in 1893 for Susan Milner? Have you taken into consideration the fact that, if she married, her name at birth would not be the same as her name at death? Reg
