If you know where someone is buried and would like to locate the grave go to your local Civic Centre and ask for the Parks and Gardens or Crematoriums and Cemetaries dept. Once there ask to see the burial records for the cemetary in question. Tell them ANYTHING but DO NOT tell them that you're doing a family tree or they WILL charge for the service (at the last time of checking it was something like £8.00 per person). What you will need to know is approx year of death and the full name of the person you're enquiring about. If you have a common name like Smith or Jones you will need to know the last known address of the person. You can get this info for free. I know, I've done this myself. Give it a go what have you got to lose. Good luck. Paul Blades |
