GR do not transcribe any records. .They take info from other sites.

Ancestry and FMP have the most recent, but nothing later than 2007

For anything after that, look at the various death announcement sites which take info from newspapers.

Of course, only a fraction of deaths (or BMD's of any category) are ever posted in the announcement section of local papers

If you've a general idea where someone died, the new Beta Probate Calendar might help.
1996-2014

There are at least 2 disadvantages to it
- the home address and/or town of death isn't listed
- not everyone's Estate goes to Probate.

The new version goes 'live' on (I think) 12 Dec. We'll have to wait to see if any further details have been added

Not sure about the records on here but on Ancestry they are up until 2007 and none after this are available online. Also, no images are available after 1983.

I was wondering if anybody knows up to what date these have been transcribed on here and elsewhere

and if recent deaths are automatically loaded up anywhere
