Google to find out how to get a South African death certificate.

There are a few south Africa records on Ancestry - but not many.

Lots of girls named Edna Wood were born 1907-9. Impossible to pick out the right one without more info.

Presumably he's still living.

Click on his name on that page, and it will give you an office address .

Why not just ask him about his family? <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

A tree on Ancestry by the grandaughter of Abbott/Wood has the husband of Edna Wood as Hailey Abbott.

Also on Ancestry a Perth Newspaper Index card , giving an address of 59 Scott Street. Obit 9.3.1972

Thank you for your help The death of Edna and Thomas seem to be the right ones I was hoping it had parents!!
As I'm going off another tree who is a DNA match but doesn't have much it's not worth buying a certificate

Thank you That is the couple I'm trying to sort out
I think Edna travelled to South Africa 1930c I found one aged 23 travelling with possibly her mother ? age looked about 60 They lived in Aberdeen ?

I think I'll have to give this one up getting nowhere fast

Any idea of the mother's name? Where did you find the record?

No idea all they had was Edna was born 17/4/1908 she had a brother Albert who was born about 1911, she went to South Africa about 1930 Married and died there so as you can see it's hopeless Thats why I was hoping the death certificates had more on them

Look at the SA site to which I gave you the link........

Who are 'they'?

I thought you'd found records yourself.................seems I was mistaken.

Where does this come from?

I think Edna travelled to South Africa 1930c I found one aged 23 travelling with possibly her mother ? age looked about 60 They lived in Aberdeen ?

I have my DNA on my Heritage and two links to came up 2nd cousin to 2 brothers As I've got a bit of my tree missing I thought I'd give it a go but one brother has quite a few people on his tree but not on Edna Wood, I've checked what they have the death that have been put up on hear I found that Passage you have I wondered about that one as Edna married Thomas Abbott from Scotland but they married in South Africa, Edna was born in Manchester as her brother Albert was

I've had a quick look at the site but I'll check it again later
As I said before I think I'll have to leave it as it would seem as the family don't know much about their ancestors I've sent a message to the 2nd brother he has only 3 people on his tree but he lives in South Africa so I'll wait and see if he can give me any more

Thank you for your help

Is there some confusion over the term 'death certificate'.?
As far as I am aware you always have to pay for the legal bmd's. It is birth, marriage & death parish registers that are often available for free on some sites. A parish register is unlikely to give any information on grandparents

I've got Death Certificates/Records ?? from America and it has the parents names on ?

ErikaH can you do a 1921 census look up for me got a 1911 census

Re Edna May Woods -

Why do you think she might be the right person? There's no middle name on her marriage cert.

"I've got Death Certificates/Records ?? from America and it has the parents names on ?"
WHOSE death certificates??

The 1930 travel record you found is NOT for the right person.
That one was born 1910, and her name was Elsie, not Edna:
