I have a FOI request that is subject to proving death. As some background:
- the person would be 97 now and all siblings and parents died before 65
- the person was known to be in Liverpool (prison) in 1933
- I am told they were visited by a family member in the 80s possibly 90s in Manchester
What I need to ascertain is
- when did they leave prison (it was a life sentence e)
- did they marry and to whom
Then I can get a death certificate and access the info.
I am a family member but the documents are pertinent to a wider dissertation on the specific crime.
Other than requesting every likely certificate of marriage do I have any other option.
I realise this might be better suited to family history so will likely read there too.
