Not all deaths occur when and where you might expect.

Also, some second 'marriages' took place without the first spouse actually having died.

Welcome to the boards WilD.

Your heading has 1937, presume from the OP that you are meaning 1837.

Would you like to say who you are looking for, when you last know they were alive and where you would expect to find the death. Perhaps you could post the last census you have him/her on and/or with family.

Deaths should have been recorded post 1837 (and indeed as burials prior to that in the parish that they occurred), but sometimes a bit of lateral thinking is required.

Name not spelt as expected, died out of expected area, age wrongly recorded etc

(my own gg Grandfather's death is not recorded and he was noted as "last seen alive February 1860" when his wife/widow was eventually granted administration of his estate in 1868

Greetings. Were all deaths recorded late 1800's as I fail to find one? Any further guidance much appreciated thanks in advance. regards salutations! WD
