Death of James and Mary Ann Blanford
I have very little more on James until his death on the 29 October 1925 in Wellington Hospital aged 85
He was buried on 1 november 1925 in the Karori cemetery in the same plot as his father
Plot Number: 4 F in the Public section
There are parts of the original death certificate that are quiet hard to read
I brought the original from Birth Death Marriages Historical records web site
www.bdmonline.dia.govt.nz
This site is a government site with a link to it from the New Zealand Internal Affairs site Once on this site you look up the free search index , after finding the certificate you are looking for you can then order that certificate online.
The historic data available for you to search is limited ie Deaths that occurred at least 50 years ago or the deceased’s date of birth was at least 80 years ago. so that information relating to people who might still be alive, can be protected.
I have a printout of the original Death certificate
The Wellington City cemetery index has a burial record plus 2 photos of James grave
