Hello there, could anyone tell me what info I can find on an overseas death certificate. I was wondering how my gg gf actually died as on ancestry it says died of wounds. I am debating whether to order the certificate or save my money for certificates that are going to give me more info. His name was Joseph pragnell, his reg. no. was s-1573. He died 23rd February 1915. I have managed to find his grave and medal roll but no other info. Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi crazymasie !
The number you have quoted belongs to a JOHN Pragnell. Are you sure you have the right person ??? John was born and raised in Fulham.
Wendi :)
PS in general I would say it's not worth getting the death certificate as it will probably tell you nothing more.

Thanks for the reply. I have the right man, his name has been spelled differently all the way through my search which has made life difficult, but I have a medal which has the reg. no. so it has helped confirm everything.
