I am searching for my great grandfather John Henry Jewell Donovan, who was a Mariner around the time of my grandmothers marriage to his son Henry Alfred.
14th March, 1905…
Have you any records of his death please, as I am unable to locate any record of him…..
Thanking you….
Jennifer Kohlman.

Nice article! Quite short, but is very interesting. True, birth records can be found online, as many state agencies are maintaining birth records online, and can be fetched very easily. Simple keywords such as name, father’s name can guarantee accurate results!
@Jennifer, why don’t you try birthdetails.com. I personally find this website to be very useful, and the kind of information you have might be enough for retrieving accurate results for birth records. You should really try this website out!

@ Jennifer: If you are thinking why I recommended you birthdetails.com when you specifically asked for death records is because a comprehensive full report through this website would give you the information you need!
Besides there are lots of other stuffs that you would be able to know. As far as I know, there’s a nominal fee involved, but trust me, its worth the money, as otherwise it would mean a lot of running around and going through the authentication process, which is tiring and time-consuming!

hi,
great guys doing a good job. helping out people to find people about the ones they want to. and also those who do not want to share. but can anyone tell me is it accurate. what if the person has given wrong details to you to? can i find about anyone in the whole world or just from some specific nations. what if the i only know the name? besides does not mean that you trust the site and the person? but i think it could be a big help.

I was involved with a guy online last year. I trusted him was ready to marry him any day he wanted me to. But my friend suggested that I must first be alert and find about him from all over I can. I was just surfing and came across this site that helped me save my life. I entered the details of the guy and found that I was being cheated in the name of a person who was long died.
