Hi Reg,

This infor came from a family member but I can not find a record of his death,
have looked on BMD. Any other suggestons please.

You should start with the cemetery closest to where he was living when he died. You don't seem to know when this was so you need to find his death first before you can start looking for a burial.

Do you have his death cert? That, at least, will tell you where he died........although that may not be where he was buried.

Once you know where he died, you can check the NBI website, to find out if the area/year is covered in their transcriptions.
