	I've found twins that I think are connected to my tree. Their births were registered Q3 1901. Sadly, I've found their deaths registered Q4 1901. I've noticed that the death cert ref no. is the same for both. Would both names be on the certificate or would you order them seperately with their names? Does it mean they died together? It's all very sad and I'm just a bit confused. Many Thanks.

	Separate certificates for both births and deaths.

	Thanks for that Geoff. So because the death cert no's the same for both, does it mean they died together then?

	Eight deaths on a page in those days.
