HI Everyone,
I haven't done any family history research in 6 years or so, but had a recent request from my father in law for some information. I'm not even sure if this info is available or where to look. Any guidance would be really helpful.
We would love to find the burial place for:
Michael John Maddaford, born 11th Jan 1963, Died October 1994 in Bristol.
May have been a catholic burial.
Many Thanks ;)

Are you certain he was buried and not cremated?
He died 13.2.1994 according to the probate application

Thanks for the reply :) I was originally told he died in Feb but then told it was October so I think that date must be right. The family are sure he was buried. If there is any way to trace it that would be amazing.
Thanks for any help

I'm his brother. He did die in February. I would be interested to know who is looking for his grave and why as there was a lot of stuff that went on at the time that means it would be unlikely that any of the Maddafords I know would have been welcome there.
Sorry to be rude, but that's the truth and I can't see anywhere on this forum to Private message the Original Poster. If she does wish to reply that's fine, I can assure you I'm genuine. I do have an air of trepidation as to finding this random post while googling my dad's name tonight (he was/is John Henry Maddaford).
Thanks.

Ok thanks. Will the OP receive some sort of notification of the PM that I send? Also, will my details remain anonymous if so? I ask as as you can understand this is a sensitive issue for me.
Thanks in advance for your help.
