Title: Exact dates
Post by: carlaelford on Wednesday 23 April 25 11:19 BST (UK)
Hi all

My mother has just been to visit her parents and sisters grave site in syston. Long story short....she wondered about the exact dates her sister was born and died. Headstone says died at 17 months old.

Is there a quicker way to find this info out or do we need to order the certificates. I have found out using freebmd that she was born in Sept qtr 1949 and died in March qtr 1951.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Linda Cristine Bailey - mothers maiden name Lewin. Birth Barrow upon Soar

Thanks in advance
Carla

If you decide to get the documents from the GRO, you can get the death record as a pdf costing £8. Death records up to 1957 are usually available for £3 as digital images but not this one. The birth record is only available as a certificate costing £12.50
