Burial Look Up for 1977 if possible please.
« on: Saturday 19 July 25 21:34 BST (UK) »
Appreciate this is a long shot and that Rugby is a large area but I was wondering if anyone had access to records or details and could kindly carry out a burial Look Up for me please.

The only information I have at present is that Jane Giles died in the June quarter of 1977 in the Rugby district. FreeBMD is quoting reference number 31 313.

Many thanks in advance for all offers of help  ;)

Don't have access to full obit, but headline gives death after hip operation. Another Rootschatter may be able to look up for you, if no access.

Many sincere thanks Cas for taking the time to research on my behalf before posting your findings.

Unfortunately I do not have a subscription to any geneology websites. If I get information I usually pop to my local library to use their edition of FindMyPast to download copies of records.

Would still be interested to find out about a burial for her though if anyone can help.

Thankyou very much Cas.

If nobody pops in with access to newspapers, ask at your library if there is access there, along with FindMyPast

I checked that date for the newspaper entry as its unlikely to have been published the day 'before' she died and it was published 10th June
