Palmerston North death notice please - *Completed with thanks*
« on: Saturday 15 May 10 23:39 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

I have found a death in Palmerston North but need a death notice

His name is George Edward WHITE he died on 11/8/1984. I am trying to find the name of his wife as there are too many to narrow down

If no luck here, I will try the funeral director

Thanks for your help as always

Hi Newbe

Palmerston North Library may be able to help you with this ?

They have a group of "genealogists" attached to their family history section, whom I understand are usually most helpful regarding such requests.

Try this (from Home page of PN Library website) :

WHAT ?  Library Resources and Collections

>>   Click on "Genealogy"

>>   On right-hand side of page, scroll down to section marked "Volunteers", where you'll find the contact link.
