Greeting’s Again Maggie….& New Year Greeting's to you..... So glad to hear this New’s……. And it was not a case of...... “ Dead but won’t lie down....!!! ” Let’s hope it will give Kate Hurst encouragement to get in touch with the Cemeteries Office in New Walk ? . . . MIKE. ...The other nice man..lol :0))))

Mike, Hats off to the lady in cemeteries at New Walk!!! It seems Great Grandma Agnes Crawford Butler nee Heatherill (who I was looking for last time we met at Gilroes!!) IS still there - have been given the number of a nice man who will take me to show me where the grave is - was sure she'd got up and walked, but it seems she's just where she's been since 1942!!! Happy New Year!! Maggie

Greeting’s Again……. Bacardi….. I did a flying visit to the Records Office today BUT No Rodd Burials found for St. Johns Enderby 1905.~09 Did look around other Villages close to Enderby 1905. ~09. Narborough, Whetstone, Cosby. Huncote, Croft, Countesthorpe, Glen Parva. But drew a blank in all above And finally Blaby Village it’s self. But the burial records for the village Blaby only covered the CHURCH YARD. For burials within the “ Civil Cemetery” you will have to contact the Blaby County Council via that link I gave you on Rootschat site. They are the only ones who hold records. Records Office Staff confirmed that the “ Blaby Union Workhouse Enderby ” did NOT have burials…… MIKE. ......Sorry.

Hi Bacardi have you had a look here http://www.enderbyheritage(.)org(.)uk/ and there are some parish registers here but not sure if this is what will help http://www.leicestershirevillages(.)com/enderby/ Elaine
