I have purchased or would like to purchase a BC Death Registration, but what information can I glean from a record such as this and how will it help me in my further research?

Based on the death record provided in this example a researcher could search these records:
- Land Records based on the address of residence provided for the deceased.
- Marriage record for the deceased and spouse as specified in the record.
- Death, Marriage, Cemetery records for the deceased individuals parents as identified on this record.
- Census records for the families of both the deceased, his parents, and his spouses family.
- This record identified the deceased individuals daughter as informant, this can be used to further search for this child and others the deceased may have had.

This is not a full representation of a research plan for this particular certificate, this is only intended to be an example of the assistance that this BC Death Registration can be in Genealogical research. Information on each certificate can vary.  The more recent records contain more detailed information than earlier records do.  It is always important to note that the information on a record such as these BC Registrations, should be used as a guide, and collaborating evidence should be pursued.  Information provided in these records was provided by an informant, usually a family member, by memory of the event.
