Hi Jane , I think it would depend on the people present, and what they knew, at the time of the person's death. Did the person have any living relatives? Checking the Metorpolitan Cemetry's Board web-site http//: www.mcb.wa.gov.au might give you some more clues. all the best, Linda Ure (sargent) Perth -----Original Message----- From: Roger Kelly <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, 7 September 2003 20:53 Subject: [AUS-WA] BMD certificates >Hi Listers, >How do I apply for death certificates from Perth WA please? >What information will I find on a death cert from 1920s - 30s? >Will it say how long the person had been in the country? > >Best Wishes, >Jane >in Scotland > > > >==== AUS-WA Mailing List ==== > >Q: Why do WA's cyber-genies hang out at the Perth DPS & use DPS-CHAT-L ? >A: Check out: ' http://www.perthdps.com/dps-chat.htm ' > >============================== >To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: >http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 >
Thanks Linda, I have had a look on the site and found it very helpful. I believe, as in NZ, the number of years the person has been in the country is usually shown if, as you say, the informant knew! We have found living relatives - now, through this List - but they know as little as we do.
