The death certificate was sent to Caza- details posted above. He died March 17th

The initial request was for 'info from the death cert'

I don't see any mention of its having been bought - although I see now that the details posted on the 16th are probably from the cert.

Erika -
Caza has the death cert, and is now looking for " a newspaper obituary lookup as well as a grave lookup ".

Why not simply get a copy of the cert?

No, Gins, that's the one already suggested, aged 77:

Anyone looking for his burial record at the Mitchell will need to know exact date of death, and last known address.

By the way, for future reference, the probate search website mentioned by Rambling does not have Scottish Wills on it.

Info re Scottish Wills here:

Wills from 1513 to 1925 are also viewable on Scotlands People, for 10 credits each.

If anyone is visiting the Mitchell library in Glasgow and would be will I g to do a newspaper obituary lookup as well as a grave lookup for Thomas Ritchie l would be reallygrateful

As the death is over 50 years ago the certificate will be available to look at and download on Scotland's People. (75 years for marriages and 100 for births. Any younger than that and you would have to purchase them through the site)

You have to register - the result above is one of 5 for Thomas Ritchie's in 1966 which are free. You will need to purchase credits - 30 for £7.50 and use 6 of them to look at and download. That will leave you a few credits for any other Scottish records you may want to look at.

(The Thomas Taylor Ritchie posted by Rambling was aged 77)

Caza. may not be what you need but there is some info on what may be his probate record, if he was Thomas Taylor Ritchie 1966
