An urgent search is underway to trace the families of 10 people who died alone in Merseyside in January.
Merseyside Police has released the names of people who have died, on behalf of coroner's officers, but searches to find their next of kin have so far drawn a blank.
Today the ECHO lists the names of people who have died in Merseyside and who police recently issued a plea to trace family members so they can attend their funerals.

In some cases people are buried or cremated without the presence of relatives in what is known as a public health funeral organised by the local authority.
None of the deaths are being treated as suspicious but it's important to try and find any relatives who may be unaware they have died.
Anthony Beckford
Anthony Beckford, 52, sadly died at his home address in Oriel Rd, Bootle, on January 12, 2022.
