death record look up at Rochdale for the Woolfenden family

[wlfndl]

Could someone please look up death records. I have a few in the 1839-45 timeframe that I am looking for. Not sure if I need to buy them or if you can just look at them and record the information. I found the church burial records but not the formal city registration.

Mary Wolfenden died April 1839, buried April 9, 1839, James Woolfenden died September 1849, buried September 13, 1840, St James, Ashworth
Simeon Woolfenden died February 1839, buried February 10, 1839, St. James Ashworth
James Woolfenden died September 1840, buried September 13, 1840 St. James, Ashworth
James Woolfenden died March 1845, buried March 2, 1845, St. James, Ashworth

Question 2, John Woolfenden of Codshaw, Wolstenholme; died May 1813, I have a burial record, are other records available? thank you

Members of the public do not have access to info on death certs - you have to buy a copy

John Woolfenden of Codshaw, Wolstenholme; died May 1813, I have a burial record, are other records available?

If you are asking about a death cert - the answer is no for that period.  Civil registration only started in 1837

If you want the death registration, then you will need to purchase the death certificate - from General Register Office (cheapest at £9.25 per copy).  However, that only applies from 1 July 1837.  Prior to that date the burial entry will be the only information available to you, unless the deceased left a will (which will possibly give you a date of death).
