Not realy a look up, but is there anyone living near the Wealdstone Cemetery. I have found my Great Grandmothers grave and would love a pic, as i live in Australia?
If you can help that would be fantastic.
Elizabeth Jane Broughton, Died 16 July 1949. Grave is section D number 3137.

I live fairly close to Wealdstone, but I don't know of a cemetary of that name, and neither does Google maps. Do you know what church it was associated with? What sort of date are we looking at here?
-
could it be also known as the Pinner New Cemetery? The email i got from Harrow Cemeteries registration office said the Wealstone Cemetery. The Pinner new cemetery was the first email i got back. As i said i live in Aus, so i just put in the info i got from the registrar.
If you can help that would be great.

When I was a kid living near Wealdstone didn't there used to be a cemetery off Byron Park (Byron Road/Belmont Road)
I'd consider that to be Wealdstone Cemetery.....not linked to any church.
See http://www.harrow.gov.uk/info/329/funerals_and_burials/481/harrows_cemeteries/3
Yes it's still there at
Wealdstone Cemetery
Byron Road
Wealdstone
HA5 5BP( postcode incorrect-Taken from the Harrow Council 's website-great!!!)
It shows a place much nearer to Pinner- no wonder why that's what you got at first!

I may be able to oblige with a piccie in the middle of next week,once it stops raining here ;D
Are you sure she has a headstone?
Also I'd need you to check with Harrow council if that IS the one they mean.

Hi

Hi Ray
I have a friend in Belmont Road,right by the side of the Cemetery his postcode is HA3 7PJ.
Again use www.streetmap.co.uk to find it on a map.
Thanks for noticing that Harrow Council have typed it up wrongly on their website!

Hi Duane
Rootschat doesn't like email addresses to be published on the boards,due to spamming- best to PM me with it. Although in this case I have now taken a copy of it and passed it on to my Wealdstone pal ;D
I suggest you go back in and modify your message,removing your email address.
Will get back to you later in the week.Hopefully with a pic.......or two ;)
