Name and Place of Death. Cause of Death. The Informant of the Death, and possibly Burial information.

I've found them useful to purchase, as I've sometimes found a daughter's married name from them etc. And it's interesting to see what carried your relatives off!

and possibly Burial information.

Is this correct? I've never seen burial information on a death certificate  At least not on an English one

See Attached snippet from my late Uncle's Death Cert. Definately English btw.

You can download a  Guide to Death Certificates including an example of a pre 1969 death certificate under What information will I see on a birth, marriage or death certificate? at http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/most_customers_want_to_know.asp

Surely that is that is the address of T Sando the informant.

Causing the deceased body to be buried means he was not just registering the death, this is the person who is giving the instructions to the undertaker and was doing the funeral arrangements.
