If the death occurred after 01 July 1837, then there certainly should be a death certificate. Why not put the full name of the person you are searching for on this list so that others may be able to help. Instead of buying death certificates, you could try searching for a burial - the National Burial Index may be of help although it is by no means a complete record of all burials in England and Wales. Are you a member of a family history society for Norfolk? The members may be able to help if you put a request in the journal.

Jane, I presume from your signature and the post-em on FreeBMD that you're looking for Elizabeth Blake Are you sure that she did die between 1841 and 1851? Have you checked that she's not alive and well on either the 1861 or 1871 census? Have you checked that she didn't remarry? You could check the burial registers for places in the Loddon registration district. http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/loddon.html I don't know how many of them are online at Familysearch. Scroll down to 'view images' and then click the 'browse through' link. Some marriage PRs are on there too. https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1416598 Pam On 21/03/2014 08:29, Numero Uno wrote: > If the death occurred after 01 July 1837, then there certainly should be a > death certificate.
