Bertie and Florie Brown
« on: Tuesday 26 July 16 15:20 BST (UK) »
HI I am searching for the deaths of the above, think they died in Birdwell,  Barnsley, South Yorkshire.  Bertie in c1971 and Florie in c1982.   Think they were born around 1910 but not sure where. Any help would be great.

I think we might need a little more help from you:

Bertie - is that Albert or Herbert or ?
Florrie - is that Florence or ?  Did she have any other forename?

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

If that is the couple then they were born before 1910/1911  :-\

There are a number of children possibly born to this couple, but as they may very well still be alive, I am unable to name them.

However, by using FreeBMD, and using the surname Brown and mother's maiden name of Green, plus a start date of 1924, there are some possibilities in the Barnsley Registration District.  Sorry, I may be telling you something you already know how to do.

rosie99 and avm228 have given you a lot more information.  ;D ;D

1910 birthdates were unlikely given the 1924 marriage, anyway.
