Title: Leon Marland
Post by: Susie1 on Saturday 13 February 16 09:02 GMT (UK)
Malta. Can anybody help to find a death in Malta, please.  Name Leon Marland born 1943 in England.
He was on Holiday in Malta when he died. It would be sometime in the late 1990's. Trying to find out his death date and where he was buried or cremated. Thank you. Sue

Are you sure that he was not returned home to be buried/cremated  :-\

No he defiantly didn't get sent home, he loved Malta and had no close family here.

He does not appear on the 'British Nationals Died Overseas 1818-2005' database on FindMyPast.  Have you tried searching for a probate record for him.

Have you tried Malta Family History?

Have to say, however, that he isn't listed  in the Index of British Citizens, 1900-1979?

Thank you both for your help. It was worth a try that someone might be able to find him.
I will try probate.  Strange he's not on the list up to 2005.
