Since 2002 the electorate have been able to opt out of their names being listed on the commercial ER. These are the ones sold to 192, GR and other commercial operations.

It's always possible that the people you are looking for have done that.
If you can find them at an address in 2002, check the online phone book to see if they are still there.

Is it likely that they owned their home? If so, check to see if it has been sold via an Estate Agents on http://www.zoopla.co.uk/house-prices/

Many thanks Detective and Reggie,
I do not know if they own their own house, no sign of them having a phone in 2002, I do have an address for an Ann Baguley she was the informant on her fathers death certificate, way back in 1989. So will write to that address and hope!!

Many thanks once again,

Gina S

Check for a phone number and address on
http://www.thephonebook.bt.com/publisha.content/en/index.publisha

Unless she is a close relative who know about you, its always better to write rather then phone. Who knows what her state of health is?

You could contact Liverpool record office and ask for a historical ER look up, and ask them trace her through at that address to see if/when she moved. The ER books can only be searched by address. Might she have married since 1989??? Or died??

I have checked on Ancestry and there is no sign of a death up to 2006, I have drafted a letter, so will send a letter to the address I have, and keep fingers crossed.
I have given quite a detailed tree showing her my connection, just trust she will not take it as a 'scam'.
Many thanks Detective,
Gina S

Hi Detective,
I wrote to the Liverpool archives and they very kindly confirmed that from the Electoral Records, she is still a resident at the address given on her fathers death certificate. So my letter will be winging its way to her today.
Thanks for the information,
Regards, GinaS
