Hi BM
I'll look up the death details again and get the reference numbers for you - I think it is cheaper to buy Qld certificates if you have the numbers. Then you can print a form off the net, or I think if you phone or email the registry they will post you a form - printing may be easier. The death certificate should say where they were buried so you will know where to go looking
I hope these are the right folks
The birth information is definitely worth looking for on the IGI and if found films can be ordered from the LDS. If you have been to your local centre you will know how helpful they can be. I think many of them subscribe to Ancestry, so you could check if you can look up the census there as well. If you haven't been, then it will be a first
back later
