My uncle Les's has been opened too on the image but is still showing as closed on the transcription. He was unmarried, born 1920 and died 1978. I'm the only one on that side of the family doing the family tree I know that for certain as I'm sometimes asked things by cousins. I didn't have his death certificate so that's why I didn't apply for it to be opened. His should never have been closed anyway with him dying in 1978.
I did ask about him on an earlier thread on here and we debated if it was because he had died before pension age that his death had not been picked up.
Doesn't explain why it's still closed in the transcription though unless they are hoping that some unsuspecting person will pay to unlock it.
