Greeting’s…….. Fek 33.

Most inner City Churches stopped burials in their Churchyards
Aprox 1855. ( unless it was to reunite families )

Most of the burials were directed to the newly opened Welford Road Cemetery
( Which I have details for 1849 through to 1950.)

If I can help just post details ……

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your very speedy response.

I am looking for details of 'Merrall' relatives.  (variations may be Merrell or Merrill!!).

Either at St Margarets or nearby!!

According to IGI, baptisms, marriages were at this church, presume burials also.  ???

Look forward to hearing from you.

Regards FEK33

Hi Mike

I saw this post and wondered if you could help me with burials in Leicester aswel?

Family is Bembridge (variations - Baimbridge, Bainbridge)

Any help at all would be great, I have been to Welford Road today but its impossible to look through everyone when I'm not even sure anyone is buried there.

The only other name I'm looking for is a Jemima Daines 1862-1898.

Any help at all would be great if you have those records.

Regards

Mark Bembridge

Sorry but the other ones with their Christian names were NOT buried in Welford Road
I ‘ll have at a guess they are buried in Gilroes Cemetery Groby Road.
Seeing their death dates ……mid ~ late 1900’s.
Unfortunately  the Council have sole rights on these records and are very expensive to obtain for now
