chrisharley9 Posted 4 September , 2009 Share Posted 4 September , 2009 Using this thread as the starting point is think it is time to review what evidence there is for each case to be submitted through IFCP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Hartley Posted 4 September , 2009 Share Posted 4 September , 2009 I agree Chris. From reading that thread, I'm unsure who is commemorated. IFCP may have picked up some home deaths when we did ODGW and we should get the overseas ones when we check the GRO officers list. But we might as well get on with what's in that thrad if we can.
