I have a sample Sth Africa dc somewheres. DCs seem to be informative, so perhaps mc will be too ?
"DEATH NOTICE.
Pursuant to the provisions contained in the Administration of Estates Act 1913"
DC headings:
Name of deceased, including nee
Birthplace, and nationality of deceased
Names and addresses of the parents of the deceased (and records if parents are known to be deceased)
Age of deceased in years and months
Occupation in life of the deceased, or if a women, of her husband
Ordingary place of residence of the deceased, or if a woman, of her husband
Married or unmarried, widower or widow
Name of surviving spouse (if any) and whether married in community of property or not
Name or Names and approximate date of death of pre-deceased spouse or spouses
Place of last marriage
The day of the decease
Where the person died House and Town or Place and District
Name of children of the deceased, and whether majors or minors
of birth of each minor, Names must be written out in full. Tf there are no children and either or both parents be dead, then give the names and address of the brothers and sisters of the deceased
Has the deceased left any movable property
Has the deceased left any immovable property
Is it estimated that the estate exceeds £300 in value
Has the deceased left a will.....
Fingers crossed that birth and marriage certs are as informative, and there's online ways to look up and to order

and they are not too expensive
Cheers, JM (edited to add headings
