Maybe not. Peter's post included; > Registration number: 4455/75 My reading of this shows the death was registered in 1975. Whilst the WA on-line death indexes at http://www.bdm.dotag.wa.gov.au/_apps/pioneersindex/default.aspx only go to 1971 a search of the WA Metropolitian Cemeteries Board at http://www.mcb.wa.gov.au/Index.aspx shows William Ernest Byers McLellan is shown as having died 12 Nov 1975 age 73 and was cremated. -- Robert G.
