The ideas are the same in other countries as here. You can start with LDS Family Search, if there - that gives you a date. If not, then you have to narrow down the time frame. Get to a librarian that speaks english in the town near where you think the death occured, and see if you can find an Obituary. There are Obits online.

Finally, the death certificate is a vital record for that country. Look up "VITAL RECORDS <country name>" in a YAHOO Search line. The follow the instructions for that country. Good luck.

Oh, Cindy's list - for a specific country. Go to the list, search for the country and click on the country links. GENFORUM too, for that surname may help you talk to someone that knows. Also, private investigators can help.
