Hi Julie, Have continued checking for the death of Blanche with no success, have checked the death index from 1960-2004 and cannot see her. Given that she would have only been 48 or so when Athol died, she quite possibly re-married and died under a different name. Keith

Probably Athols death Q3 1966 Pearse, Athol LR, age 65, Newton Abbot, 7a 540. Now to continue for Blanche

Hi Sorry did not realise I was asking for such a mammoth favour. They married in 1940 and he was in RAF. I believe he could have been in Devon when he came out, but know idea of year. I know this is not much more info. Please tell me if it is impossible without any more info than I have at moment Thanks Julie

Hi Julie, Have you any idea when or where they died? Without some clue, it will be a very long job. the full index post approx 1911 is not searchable like FreeBMD, it has to be searched quarter by quarter though the years.

I am looking for the death of Athol Lancelot Reginald Pearse born c 1901 and his wife Blanche Mabel Pearse (m s Sanders) born c 1918. They married in Scotland, but I believe died in England. I would be very grateful for any help as I am not used to Ancestry as most of mine are Scottish Thankyou Julie
