Julia thats fantastic thank you !  I had no idea that information would be accessible. 

I have had a look on line too and like you I cannot figure out how to view the records.  A trip to London is a big ask so I may call them to ask for assistance on viewing online.  I'll post if I get anywhere.

One again thanks for sharing !

Family History Beginners Board / Maritime death - BT344 record box 0070
« on: Friday 09 November 12 15:00 GMT (UK)  »
Hi can anyone advise me on this.  I have located what i believe may be an ancestor who died onboard "Berwick Castle" in January 1917.    On FindMyPast the records shows the details came from BT334 box 0070 which I understand to be in the Archives office Kew.

I wish to order a death certificate for this person but it does not give "GRO" reference nor does it state whether death was "England and Wales" or "Overseas".

Anybody have any good suggestions ?

Interesting input, thank you.  I shall continue to ask the family member if they can recall anything more about what he used to make.

Thanks for the posts, much appreciated however I am still unsure how that would relate to carpentry.  A living relative does not recall him being involved in that field at all, "he made things and sold them" is how she recalls its.

I wonder if there are any other possibilities?

I have been researching an ancestor in London and he appears on a death certificate in 1944 which occupation listed as Carpenter M.O.A.P.

I cannot find any reference to what this M.O.A.P.means.  Does anyone recognise it ?
