Title: Obituary ~ 2015 Nicholas BLAKE in Kent
Post by: hilbury on Saturday 29 February 20 23:01 GMT (UK)
Hi there

Is it possible for someone to find an Obituary or Death notice or other information, relating to a recent death in Kent, England please? I understand that being so recent, sharing this information may not be allowed, please let me know if this is the case.

I recently found this record on the GRO death index and wonder if it's my cousin, who I've lost touch with.

Name: BLAKE, NICHOLAS  BRIAN  Birth Year: 1944  GRO Reference:  DOR  Q1/2015 in Kent  (564-1V)  Entry Number 511388786

I believe he was living in Margate, Kent when I last heard from him in 2010.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Hilary

www.192.com has an address in Margate which shows his wife, daughter, and son in law.  You have to buy credits to view the full address etc

His daughter married in 2000

Hi

You say you were wondering if the 2015 death was your cousin.  If no obit notice can be found, and you have the address, you could contact his wife/widow or his daughter to check.  It does seem very likely it was his death as there is no other Nicholas B Blake birth in that birth year range and the locality is right

No probate entry found

The son in law has an uncommon name and if you Google him - you should be able to make contact if you don't want to involve your cousins widow

Hi Carole
Thanks again for your reply, I was thinking along the same lines.
I have found his daughter and her husband on FaceBook, so I can get in touch that way. I was just hoping to confirm the names of his family through an Obit or Death notice first.
I appreciate your help, thanks again.
