This would (probably) be his Death Notice, will, and estate papers. s/s is
"surviving spouse", so he was marrried. Someone needs to go to the Archives
to look at the documents. They may be transcribed, but not photocopied.

As an alternative, you can try the LDS (Mormon) Library system. They have
microfilmed many of these records. Perhaps some kind person can look in the
index to find which film you need to look at?

Best wishes,
Keith

provided to someone else about the Naairs system but don't know where to go
to get more information.

Sorry what does all this mean I have found in the family bible that George
Henry Stanley THOMSON died 22nd July 1940 at Greys Hospital,
Pietermaritzburg. I don't even know if he was married. He was born in Leith,
Scotland, 27th Aug 1886.
Thank you for you help
