Hi

I'm wondering if anyone can do a lookup of a death notice for me...

Mr. Samuel FORSYTH, formerly of Frizington, Cumbria England, but a native of the north of Ireland - he was my Great Grandfather.

The information I have (from an English newspaper report) tells me he died on April 1st 1899 (from bronchitis and typhoid fever) and was buried on Easter Sunday - apparently in Johannesburg.

I would just like to "see" the death notice to confirm this, and to know if it will tell me anything else.

Thanks in advance

Colin
