Title: cardiff cemeteries 1800's
Post by: agaff on Thursday 03 June 10 11:16 BST (UK)

can anyone tell me what cemetery my RC Irish cardiff ancestors, who lived in St Mary's and would have attended st davids church, are likely to be buried in? Is it cathays and how does one find out where someone is buried?
Regards

If you email Cardiff council breavement services (http://www.cardiff.gov.uk/bereavement/content.asp?nav=2867%2C2903%2C5556&parent_directory_id=2865) (email at the bottom of the page), they will do a look up for you if its after 1912. If its before 1912 they will send you a form to fill in to search for 5 max which is £18.50 last time I asked.

Cathays was opened in 1859 if that helps.
