Hi Hope someone can help me. I am searching for a death 1901-1905. There are an awful lot of deaths on the indexes with 0 in the age part. Does this mean that alot of infants died at birth or that the age when they died wasn't registered? So far i have not been looking at ones with 0 but perhaps I need to? Thanks Sam

I'm looking for Edward Roberts. He is on the 1901 census, aged 40 living in Wolstanton, Staffordshire. His son Richards marriage certificate in Sep 1905 gives fathers details as Edward Roberts Deceased so I assume he dies somewhere between the two dates. However, I have searched every year and can find no-one of the correct age. That's why I wondered if the ones with 0 were possibly relevant. Sam
