Does anyone have a map of the above - I've got the details of my great grandparents' graves but no idea where they actually are - as the site is over 31 acres it's like looking for the proverbial needle! :)
Would appreciate any help available!
Many thanks

Hi,
Welcome to Rootschat. :)
I had a similar problem with Chadwell Heath cemetery; contacted them with details and was emailed a map and grave number. Contact details for Rippleside:

On this subject - can anyone get the website "Find Your Deceased" - http://cemweb.barking-dagenham.gov.uk/servlet/Telesearch - to work
It's been "fragile" for a while and I found it seemed to prefer Chrome to Firefox but for the last few weeks I haven't been able to access it at all - I have sent a message through the "website errors" form but haven't had a response
Is anyone close enough to check with the Council??
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I had problems a few days ago so I emailed the cemetery I was interested in (Chadwell Heath), explained the problem (they are aware they said) and they offered to check their records. I gave them the names/dates and got a response along with a map of the cemetery.

Thanks for that - I've got a few new deaths I wanted to check for burials probably at Rippleside and I always like to look to see who else is buried in the grave - have made a few discoveries :)
Hopefully if they are aware of the problem they will get the site up and running again soon as it is such a useful tool

Hello Sue if you find you have relatives buried at rippleside or any cemetry around the area of I would be happy to take photos or transcriptions of (if any remaining) headstones for you.
-
Thanks very much for the kind offer - I was over a few years ago and managed to find and photograph quite a few headstones - though unfortunately many of the references I had referred to unmarked graves
I'll have a look through my records and see if I have any more recent finds to have checked out
If you are a local - have you heard anything about the website??
Cheers
Sue
