Can't find him in Berks Burial index

YOu did not mention what the date was but Iwould have thought a cemetery is more likely on later burials

Welcome to rootschat  :)

This looks like his death, where was he living at the time?  Windsor registration district covers quite a large area.  http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/windsor.html

Yep that's him. all i know is that he lived in Windsor all his life, got a feeling it was old Windsor.My father never went to the funeral so doesn't know where he was buried.

Thanks for the help :)

This link shows Windsors cemeteries

I would think St Leonards road is most likely.  However being on the Englefield Green/Egham boundary he may well have worshipped there.

Have you tried local newspapers for an obituary?   This link may help
