Hi IJL, Dresden cemetery is on the junction of Chaplin road and Belgrave road, and Longton cemetery is off Spring Garden road (accessed from Trentham road.)

Hi Ijl ..... as Sue45 has said, they are not the same.....Longton cemetery is a municipal one and the other one is a Church on.   Have a look at these two links
one of which has some MI's
