Hi

There appear to be 2x family tress on ancrusty,
1x yours? 
1x belonging to anthonybrown31?
Have you tried discussing the burials with the other owner?

Hi Ray

Thank you for your reply.

I have checked the Brown family tree and there is nothing to indicate where Peter Wallace is buried. There are quite a few trees with Peter Wallace (my great grandfather) but no luck as to where he is buried. Can you please advise if  I would find this information elsewhere.
Kind Regards

Do you have his death certificate - if so, where was he living?  In Benington, or somewhere else?  Have you looked at the parish records for St Peter in Benington?  Alternatively, Stevenage would seem a good bet, I assume there is a cemetery there!  :-\

Hi Diane

The reason I mentioned talking to the tree owner is if they know more than is published on the tree.
Like, for example as BumbleB says, the death certificate.


As an aside, I found this on HALS . . . . .

Peter Wallace, 31 Dec 1896, Little Munden, Accused Theft, Hertford Petty Sessions, Summary conviction

If you widen the HALS search then you get a small number of "Wallace" misdemeanours  :)

Hi Mark
Hope you are well
We have spoken before.  You are my 2nd cousin.
My dad, Bill, was your dad's brother.
I have seen the grave at Ware. I went there about 3 years ago.
There is a bench there with Peters name on it
Did you know that Aunt Doddy and uncle Vic passed away in May of last year?
How are you getting on with your family research?
I haven't done much on mine just lately, but still keep dipping in and out of ancestry.co.uk
Keep in touch
Love cousin Diane

Bit of a strange one . . I saw a medium 25 yrs ago and she told me about a mrs cordwell and that she died in 1964 on the 26th of October and that she was 94 and 4ft nothing talland had a nose like a witch. My mum said she died wen she was young but she remembered she had a lump between her eyes and she lived in star street. Anyway I found the grave in ware cemetery and it was the same grave my nans ashes r in. I had a woooow moment and view life differently now. I looked in to her family again recently and found a picture woow again . Anyway preslands seem to be related to mardells and cranes I think with out looking. I live in Tewin now with Vicki my partner. Ps we sat on Peters bench last week .all the best to u cousin

Hi Mark,
That sounds very strange.
I wonder why you went to a medium all those years ago? Sounds interesting.
I have not heard of a Mrs Cordwell but very odd that she is where your Nan's ashes are.
Do you still have access to her picture?
I would love to see any photos you may have of your Dad Reg and any others you may have of our Presland family.

Feel free to email me rather than the rootschat as I don't often get notification of my messages on rootschat.
Love Diane

Hi Diane,

I have changed your settings to instant email, they were set up to first notification only, so if you did not revisit the topic you would not be notified again of a another new reply.

Can we change your username to something different, It is a very strange username for the current situation with covid ???

Regards

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Many thanks for changing the notifications for me. It has been years since I have been on rootsweb, then all of a sudden I get a message
 I chose my user name as .. you guessed it.. I am a nurse.
I prefer to keep my username if that is ok.
With kindest Regards.
Diane
