	On the death certificate it has an area, so would presume that would be roughly the area they were buried. If you call that council with dates etc (the cemetery dept) they maybe able to advise you where to look. I had a problem and the council for that area were very helpful, giving me the number of a cemetry and when they couldn't find the grave, they rang another cemetry and a lovely man there looked the name up and found my G.Grandad and even looked for my G.Nan. Hope you find the graves. Lynda
