Title: whitehaven cemetery
Post by: yogibear82 on Friday 27 August 10 16:16 BST (UK)

 Hi,

Is there anyone who would kindly look up a grave in Whitehaven cemetery for me. Charles Rogan born 14? April 1913 Died ? May 1991. They were RCs so I dont know if there is a seperate RC part of the cemetery. I would appreciate this very much.
Many thanks,
Yogi

There is an astonishing number of free datasets available for Whitehaven and the surrounding area, on this site, including indexes of the Cumberland Paquet and info related to shipping, the militia, lunatic asylum patient admissions..

Burials in the Whitehaven parishes prior to the opening of Whitehaven Cemetery are also freely available online, along with baptisms & marriages, but I'm not at home at the moment and have forgotten where. Give a shout if you're interested and I will find it when I'm home.
