Title: Gap in the tree
Post by: mackemyank on Thursday 19 August 21 23:15 BST (UK)
I wonder if anyone could help.  I’m trying to close a gap in my family tree and my great aunt has vanished.  Her name is or was Hazel M  H.  She was born around 1940's somewhere around Newcastle UK.  She was a student nurse in 1968 and lived in Crawcrook UK

As you have no info about this person and given her birthyear - she could still be alive.

Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy so info about living persons is not allowed and you need to remove her name from your post

I heard she passed away maybe 2011 from an unofficial source.

Where?

Under what surname?

Have you contacted any of her siblings - your great aunts & uncles - to ask about her?   She appears to have had 5 siblings - all born after her

If she died c2011 you should be able to find her death on the GRO index

maybe she left a will.

As Carole mentioned you should really remove her names unless you have proof that she has died.
