Subject: RE: Application for copy death certificates – William Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983) From: Denham, Karen (Registrars) Direction: received Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 08:55 UTC Institution: Glamorgan Archives Refs: none Archive id: gm-1a08a8783f2b6b56 ------------------------------------------------------------ Hi Sion Thank you for your email. As I stated in my last email we only hold the record for William Buckler in 1990. I have found Mary Doreen Williams in 1983 on FREEBMD with that volume and page number and it clearly states her name as this. I have also tried with my colleagues in the Barry Register Office and they don’t hold the record there either and they have done a search on various names also. With regards to your email of the 21st August 2026 we cannot comment on individual cases and that is the case for the solicitor. We can only supply copies of the certificates that you are trying to locate. With regards to Mary Doreen Williams as I explained it best to get this certificate from our head office as they hold all the records for England and Wales and you just need to give them the volume and the page number that you have. If you would like to purchase the copy of William Bucklers death certificate then you can either apply online or give us a call on [phone redacted] and we can take the order and payment from you. I am sorry that I cannot be of more help to you.

ALLANOL: Daw'r e-bost hwn o'r tu allan i Gyngor Caerdydd, cymerwch ofal wrth glicio ar ddolenni. *** . Dear Karen, Thank you for your emails of 21 August and 9 September 2026. Your 9 September message repeats the 21 August reply and does not address my follow-up of 21 August 2026 (13:31), which attached the only document I hold for Mary Doreen Williams and asked specific questions about the March 1983 registration. I set out below only those points that fall within the Register Office. 1. William (Billy) Buckler — entry you confirm you hold Please confirm in writing that: (a) Cardiff Register Office holds the death entry; (b) the entry will be retained and will not be destroyed; (c) the registration particulars needed to order a certified copy, namely exact date of death, district, volume and page (or equivalent register reference). I will consider placing the order. Please confirm whether you need anything further from me before I pay (priority £38.50 or standard £12.50). 2. Mary Doreen Williams — entry you say you cannot locate I already supplied: - full name: Mary Doreen Williams - date of birth: 10 August 1913 - death registered: March 1983, South Glamorgan - GRO index: Volume 28, Page 3029 - supporting document attached to my 21 August email Please confirm: (a) whether that 21 August attachment was received and reviewed; (b) whether the search included Volume 28, Page 3029 for March 1983, South Glamorgan; (c) which indexes and years were searched, and under which name variants (Mary, Doreen, Mary D, Williams); (d) if Cardiff does not hold the entry, which office should hold a March 1983 South Glamorgan death, or whether I should order from GRO using Vol 28 / Page 3029; (e) if the entry is found, whether the index or register shows anything unusual for March 1983 (for example a gap between date of death and date of registration, or any other feature visible on the face of the record). Point (e) is a request about the registration record only. I am not asking the Register Office to comment on title, planning, or any other matter outside civil registration. I would be grateful for a written reply to each of 1(a)–(c) and 2(a)–(e). Yours sincerely, Sion Buckler [email redacted]<[email redacted]> ********************************************************************** The Council welcomes correspondence in Welsh, English or bilingually.
