Member Since: June 2006 Posts: 126 Send Message	Can anyone please advise where I can look up the death notices of my grandparents who were living overseas whereby the British Authorities were notifed of their deaths as they were receiving a BR pension. I have googled this and result came up with irrelevant info. Surely there must be a website out there somewhere to look this up. I have also looked up Ancestry but death register is only for UK deaths. Any advice would be most welcomed. Many thanks. Liesele

	They should appear on the Deaths overseas indexes on 1837.

Member Since: June 2006 Posts: 126 Send Message	Janet, where do I find the Overseas Death Indexes 1837? Is that on Ancestry, as I've not seen it there before.
