Kingston, Surrey, and Gravesend, Kent are many miles apart............check any road map.

2a is not the page.........it's the Volume

Ordering the death certificates is the answer!


Then all your questions will be answered.

You could order the death certificates for both of them - it would give an address, informant information and cause of death.

yes thats them too different places but on the same page in the death registary 2a it seems strange both dying about the same time and both being carpenters did they work together did they live close to each other ?
