Hi there, I am a bit stuck so any help would be appreciated. I am trying to find a death record for Bernard / Barnard Dorian, born 1816, died 1868. Born in Co. Down. Died in the North East (possibly Durham or Northumberland) Can anyone help? Thanks Matt

If you can't find the record, how do you know he died in 1868? Reg

Thanks everyone. The South Shields one looks promising, although the surname is spelt with two 'r's'. I was given the death in 1868 info from another GR member, but wanted to check for any records to confirm and to find place of death. Thanks Matt

I'd say the death Merry found in 1868 in South Shields looks the most likely. Kath. x
