Missing death in the 1950's last hope

[dillybert]

I think possibly part of the mystery is solved...

Had some credits left on Scotlandspeople, so just on an off chance did a search there.

Bernadette's birth record - Sent by PM.

and also:
Death record:
1   1950   BEANEY   HERBERT GEORGE
M   
Age: 38   
BLACKBURN   /WEST LOTHIAN   
Cert Ref: 669/02 0018

I think you can pay for an immediate download of the certs from www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

hope this helps

Hi Dilly,

Thank You so much. That is wonderful, I have been searching for months with no luck, I am so glad you have found them. I Just need to find their marriages now. Thanks Again.

Regards,

Serena.

One last thing, but I did notice that Oliesi's death in 1997 is registered twice - one under Fraser and again under Beaney. They point to the same cert etc, it's just down twice.

I'm not sure of the circumstances where this is usuallu done (maybe someone else knows?) - I've only encountered it once, much earlier for an illigitamate child who's mother had remarried - but it could indicate that whoever registered the death was not quite convinced of the legitimacy of the use of the married name?? I'm speculating, but thought I'd mention it.

I dont know if it applies here but I do know if you have a illegitemate child and marry the father before they are one you can get the certificate changed with fathers name on,my daughter was told this when my grandaughter was born sometime ago,also if you baptise the child before one year old you can officially change their christian name,my grandson has this,is registered twice with two different christian names.
