Title: Which Cemetery in Kettering COMPLETED
Post by: Ridgeback on Thursday 11 June 09 17:40 BST (UK)

Hi

My Grandfather Sidney Lawerence James died in 1961 (listed in the last quarter Death Index) in Northampton and the funeral took place in St Matthews church Northampton. He was buried in a Cemetery in Kettering but my mother cannot recall which one.

Or perhaps someone may be kind enough to find the funeral notice which hopefully name the cemetery

Regards
