Hi Listers, The suggestion that the deceased may have died in another jurisdiction is quite feasible. My G grandparents grave in Christchurch New Zealand lists on the headstone my grandfather's brother who "Died Serving His Country". I also have a photograph of the headstone on his actual grave in the Commonwealth War Cemetery in Alexandria, Egypt where he died in 1915 after being evacuated from Gallipoli.

I have a very clear photgraph of a headstone in Tamworth cemetery, with a date of death in 1965. I have thought of the possibility that this person might have died out of the state, but have no way of knowing that. I've tried the Ryerson Index, but no luck. Many Thanks Jean
