Joseph Doorey b1958 d1974 West Ham London.
Never met my brother. He lived in a home all his life. How do I find out what medical condition he had and where he lived.
My family have all died no one to ask.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks
Janet

Do you have a copy of his birth & death cert?

I had a look for birth and death in years you mentioned but couldnt find the record. His death cert will provide the detail of where he lived and who registered the death.

Have looked 1957-1959 and cannot find his birth with the spelling DOOREY - are you sure this is the correct spelling?

Is it possible that he didn't in fact die then?

You can now order his birth certificate from the info Portland Rose supplied.


I could not find his death registered for 1974 though, where did you get this death year from?

Hi Nicki,
Sorry about that I got a bit confused.
I know he was 16 when he died so that would be 1976 then.
Thanks

Hope you get the info you want from the cert. At least this gives you his exact date of birth.

Thank you for your help.

If you send off for his birth and death certificates perhaps you will get some answers. If he was in a home at time of his death you may be able to get their records.

Let us know how you get on.

Good luck.

Nicki
