Would it be worth me getting, do the parents show on a certificate at this time?
South Australia is a really hard state to search in, i have never obtained a certificate from that state but i did some digging around and it appears that for that era parents are NOT named on the death cert.

Apparently they didnt put parents names on them until 1993. Personally i feel it would be a waste of money.
