Can anyone help to find the burial place of Martin Bullock who died on 3 August 1900. His address is recorded as
4 Eastwoods Yard, Manchester St , Huddersfield .
Thank you
-
Hi
I think he would have been buried at Edgerton cemetery which is the council cemetery.
You seem to have a date so you could try and contact the local history department of the Huddersfield library and ask them if they could look it up for you.

Council will do a search for burial place if information is given to them on who,where etcetera if you pay a fee for them to search. search fee is minimal. i know i'm trying to find burial ground myself.
Information is on kirklees website.

Hi
The library do so much research for free, I think they do 30 minutes or more a month free but you would have to check with them.
Just give them the dates, for you I would say 1 August 1900 to the 20 August 1900 and ask them to look in both the consecrated and unconsecrated sections.
Undertaker if you give me some pointers to the area you are looking for I will try to point you to the right graveyard.

Hi
You could also try the Huddersfield family history society, The Rootsceller, Meltham, Huddersfield.
They have a lot of burial info in book form transcribed.
Also Lockwood cemetery and other nonconformist chapels burial grounds should be consided held at the Huddersfield library.

A while ago now, I looked in the Huddersfield Examiner and the Holmfirth Express for a death notice for this man, but I could not see anything. But if he was living on Manchester Road there is a chance there might be a notice in the Colne Valley Guardian. I can take a look on Wednesday. I will post the result, if any!!!

Hi
Some of the replies are confusing Manchester Street with Manchester Road.
Manchester Street ran from the top of Outcote Bank to Market Street and was roughly where the maid doors to the Huddersfield courts are. Manchester Road is still there at the bottom of Outcote Bank and runs towards Marsden.

Undertaker think the wakefield archive has some info re storthes hall burials, I worked there from 1972-1988
There is a memorial and a plaque dedication to all storthes hall patients that were buried at Thurstonland church as a lot where, on June 17th i think, at the church
Alot of patients up to 1972 were buried a Thurstonland after this was edgerton cemetery
Has been in Huddersfield examiner last week
Ann Littlewood has wrote a book

Trying to find a mary ann ellison who died on 27th september 1918 who was born with the surname holroyd and who's husband was joseph ogden ellison as can't find her birth record and don't know if she was buried anywhere with a headstone so want to try and find where she was buried. she lived in halifax but died at the hospital and so don't know where she was buried. if anyone can help me find which church would help solve the mystery.
any ideas.?

Hi Undertaker
Try starting a new fresh thread as your chance of finding may increase. This thread seems completed as the original request thread beginner member has never come back after the 1 post request message for Martin Bullock burial.
-
Will do
T.

In the mean time! I'll make enquiries of Mary Ann Ellison who died on 27 th September 1918 for her burial place. If she is buried in Halifax it maybe difficuilt as there are many nonconformist chapel's there or easy if she is in one of the main cemeteries in Halifax or Huddersfield as you gave exact date of death.
Well see ?

Cheers. She lived at Dennis Court Green Lane Halifax but died at Storthes Hall but was then moved as most people were at that time when death occurred there. Believe most were moved to a Church in Huddersfield but don't know which one.

Undertaker not sure what you mean by moved, but see my previous reply, ann littlewood has wrote a book and the memorial at thurstonland

Knowing the exact date of death will refine a search to a piont it will take minutes to check each church nr starting with St Thomas in Thurstonland. Kirkburton is near also.

No MI of a Mary Ann Ellison in Thurstonland church yard
-
I have been to the Huddersfield library, I have checked Thurstonland parish register of burials from the 27 th Sept to end of Dec 1918 and there is is no Mary Ann Ellinson burial there, though other some entries did showed the abode as Storthes hall asylum (Quit a lot) I also checked Kirkburton, Kirkheaton Cem, Farnley tyas, Lockwood cem and Edgerton cem and found no burial of Mary Ann. It could be she is buried with her husband if he died before her or in a family grave in Halifax, seeing that Thurstonland churchyard was the burial places for some Storthes Hall inmates.
I also checked the Huddersfield Examiner newspaper those dates in 1918 and nothing of her death was entered.

There was a Railway station in Kirkburton in those days just below Storthes Hall that could easily have transported Mary Ann's body to Northowram and would have not taken long in transit.
Where ever he's buried ???, I think you'll find Mary Ann his wife maybe buried with him as she's not buried with the normal Storthes hall inmates at Thurstonland graveyard

Hello Undertaker,
Have you found the grave in King Cross Meth's?
If not i can either guide you there or look for it for you.
It is one of the easier graves to find, and not too badly overgrown.
walk into the entrance of the graveyard that is to the left of the old chapel on Skircoat Moor Road.
Walk 9 rows to the right of the path, that is row 'O'
walk 8 graves up from the wall nearest to the chapel and you have found your grave, it is depicted as 'Ellison' on the original maps.
if you need any help let me know, i search the graveyard regularly.
Regard,
Andy

Hello Undertaker,
I have attached a marker page to help you find the grave, in the event of there not being a stone.
take a stick or rake to clear the undergrowth, i also take a pair of shears to let in light and trim the ivy.
Regards,
Andy
