Where do you get a death certificate for relatives who died in the 1st war? I have the information but not sure where you send off for the certificate as he was killed in France and buried out there. Many thanks, Sally

This will not help with certificates but have you seen his entry oin the Commonwealth War Graves Website www.cwgc.org It will give some information about him including next of kin in most cases. Worth a look. Jack
