Substitute records may contain information about more than one event and are used when records for an event are not available. Records that are used to substitute for death events may not have been created at the time of the death. The accuracy of the record is contingent upon when the information was recorded. Search for information in multiple substitute records to confirm the accuracy of these records.

Tips for finding deaths
Successfully finding death records in online databases depends on a few key points. Try the following search suggestions:
 * Add information. For common names, add more information to narrow the search such as approximate birth date or parent's names if known.
 * Spelling variations. Your ancestor's name may be misspelled. Search with spelling variations for the first and last name of your ancestor.
 * Search given name. Search by given name (leave out the last name) with the approximate date of birth or death.
 * Know county. Because of the abundance of common given and last names, knowing the county and parish is important to narrow down the search. See Finding the Wales County or Parish of Origin to learn how.
 * Date range. Expand the date range of the search by 5 years.

Records Start Nonconformist records date to 1567, although a majority of records began in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Before the 1850s, the majority of burials were recorded in the Church of England and, therefore, do not appear in nonconformist records.
