Title: Upton On Severn help please
Post by: alveleyhistorian on Tuesday 23 June 15 20:06 BST (UK)
Does anyone possibly live near Upton on Severn and could have a quick look around the churchyard for me ? I am interested in finding a gravestone for Daphne Gladys Howard of New House Upton on-Severn who died in February 1949.
any help much appreciated..

The Town Clerk holds the burial records for the (large!) Upton upon Severn Cemetery.  She said 'There is no burial recorded for Daphne Gladys Howard for February 1949 so there will be no headstone.'

Daphne could be buried at The Hook Cemetery.  Apparently there is a plan in the vestry.  If you email me either via this site, or www.upton.uk.net I can give you a name and telephone number.

Alternatively, you could contact Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service, The Hive, Sawmill Walk, The Butts, Worcester WR1 3PB.  Tel: (01905) 765922. Email:archive@worcestershire.gov.uk
