HI ELF ,Just a wild guess but i think you might try Bilston ,Coseley came under Bilstons control back in the 1930s and there is a large graveyard there , other than that there is Christ Church where there must be a small graveyard attached .  Signalman

Coseley graveyard is in Gough Rd. attached to Christ Church.

There are two graveyards. One on the site of the church and the other over the road. The one over the road was reputed to be the people buried who died from the Black Death. This is what we were told as children.

I'm afraid this is an old post from 2007 & the poster never returned to it after getting the info.
