Hello everyone, My name is Christine Anderson and I live in Western Australia. I have located the death of a relative on the English wills Index and would like to order his death certificate. Can any one advise me of the address for this and the cost. My details are.. Denham Chatterley died 6th Sept. 1914 Between Kimberley and De Ar in the colony of the Cape Of Good Hope. I have not researched in Sth. Africa before, Denham was quite a young man, so wondered what caused his death. Thankyou to you all, Chris Anderson.
Hello Christine I searched the National Archives at www.national.archives.gov.za and found his death notice: DEPOT KAB SOURCE MOOC TYPE LEER VOLUME_NO 6/9/763 SYSTEM 01 REFERENCE 2287 PART 1 DESCRIPTION CHATTERLEY, DENHAM ROBERT. DEATH NOTICE. STARTING 19140000 ENDING 19140000 To get a copy of this you will either need to write to the Cape Town Archives, ask someone on the list, pay a researcher or you can join the Cape Town Family History Society for R100.00 per year where you are entitled to 5 free death notices per year from the Cape Town archives (KAB) as long as you look up the reference. By the way his death notice is not a medical certificate so it probably will not give his cause of death. Death certificates had not been around for very long when he died. kind regards Heather Heather's South African Genealogy Help List www.genealogy.co.za The 1902 Municipal Voters Roll of Cape Town - Districts 1 to 6 The 1878 Voters Roll for the Cape is now available with tens of thousands on names !!! 1805, 1829, 1835 and 1849 Cape Almanacs now on CD The Juta's Directory of 1900 which lists residents of Cape Town from the City Bowl until Simonstown.
