Hi Everyone,

I just wondered if someone could help with this one.

I have been purchasing certificates from England and IOM for the family, working backwards to prove what I have found.

I had details for Thomas Burns who died Dec 1929 from Brian's site, but the registry office has conducted a search and can't find a death certificate for Thomas, only Margaret who died in Oct 1929.

Do you think it is possible that Thomas died in England aged 79 (his son was living in Liverpool), and then buried back in IOM with Margaret?

The MI wording is:
Maughold Old Yard
ZG 3
In loving memory of MARGARET BURNS of Brookhill, Ramsey who died 2nd Oct 1929 aged 75 years
also THOMAS husband of the above who died 6th Dec 1929 aged 79 years
At Rest

Regards

Diane
