Dot It doesn't appear to be possible to register, and e-mails to the site admin go unanswered. However, UK Web Family's ''database'' seems to be a copy of the GRO's death index 1984-2002 - therefore, the same information is available on Ancestry and on 1837online (i.e. all you'll get is a GRO reference for the death cert, which you then have to purchase for more info). If you don't have access to this death index, ask on here and someone will look up the details for you. Richard

Thankyou all for your replies. I will shout when I need help, its just that I saw my parents names (they died 4 and 6 years ago) and wondered what the site was about. Just made me a bit annoyed when they wont let the 1911 census out but something as new as this is on a website. I know it could be taken from 1837, it was just a shock to see them staring back at me. Sorry about the moan. Dot
