LOL, that will be a good'un. You will have to add it to the thread of amusing deaths on here.

Thanks for the help

The death is in North Bierley.

Just wanting to check if a rumour is true, looking at the sister of my gt gt grandmother who was supposed to have died after a wardrobe fell on her!

Here you are Alan -

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/

Go to that site, tick the box that asks if you have the GRO ref and then just follow the info through, paying £7 by card.

Thats not stupid Gary, thats just the position most of us found ourselves in at the beginning of this never ending journey! Have you been on the official GRO site? With the Ancestry reference no, a cert should be £7. There are a lot of fake sites around.

I'm in Hull, where is your death registered?

Print off the details and send them to the local registery office and they will do the rest. You can get the address off the web. Some will even do it online.

I know I am probably going to sound rather stupid, but I am stuck on ordering a death certificate. Although I have been doing this for a while now all the certificates I have needed I have been able to get locally or through the yorkshire bmd site. I don't know how to go about it any other way. I don't have an exact date just the information you can get from ancestry.

Thanks in advance of any advice.
