TIP: If you are looking for, let say, James Smith, by typing in that name you will get every James and every Smith listed in the HappyHaggis website, which might not be too useful. If you use speech marks ”James Smith” you will only get the full name coming up. You can just search for a surname or even a street name if you wish. The HappyHaggis website if fully searchable.

As well as the BMD notices, there are many news stories relating to accidental deaths. These feature the names of victims, whose families may not have been affluent enough to pay for a newspaper death notice. If anything, they offer a fascinating glimpse into a world before health and safety regulations were mandatory.

We hope you find what you are looking for.
