We do not believe the requested death record is held in the Vale of Glamorgan and have passed it to our Cardiff colleagues, who will be in touch if they hold it.
“I do not believe it is held in the Vale of Glamorgan.”
I thanked the registration officer, noting the information given went beyond what was needed and that I appreciated it.
“That was more than you needed to you and I appreciate that.”

We were unable to find records for either requested certificate and advise contacting Cardiff directly, since deaths in Llandough between 1990 and 1996 are held there and South Glamorgan covered the Vale and Cardiff.
“We have been unable to find records for either of the requested certificates.”
I asked Cardiff/Vale Register Office for certified copies of death certificates for William Buckler (died 1990, Llandough Hospital) and Mary Doreen Williams (registered March 1983, South Glamorgan Vol 28 Page 3029), and requested guidance on process and required details.
