Hi Chris.
Its George 15 again,I wonder if you can help me I trying to find the death date of William Page of Isfield who I know was alive 1901 census and living in Isfield.I have searched BMD from 1901 untill 1925,although I have it one of my documents as death before 1905? If you don't know perhaps you could point me in the right direction.
George 15.

William is 64 in 1901 - does that tally with his age in other census records?   Ages at death are often wrong so don't dismiss those that are a few years out.   I would be tempted to write to the Uckfield office and ask them to look - assuming you have searched the full records and not just FreeBMD.  Full ones are free on ancestry.    The fact that Nanny jan found two so easily means there may well be others that you missed.   Is it possible he had another first name?   Sometimes people are known in life by a second name but formality kicks in at death and the unused first name is put on the certificate.
He might have died in a different area - moved to be near a child perhaps?
Have you looked at the burial registers for the local church?   Finding his wife's death might help too as it would say wife or widow of etc.
I am sure he will turn up somewhere!
