Hi All
I am researching soldiers of my Regiment who died of disease in South Africa 1899-1902, where death certificates issued and if so where would these be found to purchess
cheers Phil

Phil,

I'm not sure if death certificates were issued under those conditions.

For men who died after the war, I have obtained death certificates from professional researchers for a modest fee in the past. The government's GRO service may also help: www.gov.uk/order-copy-birth-death-marriage-certificate . Ancestry offer a similar service.

Regards
David

Phil,

If you give me the details for one man, I will check Ancestry.

Hello Phil

What details are you looking for on these men?

Regards
Meurig
