Title: Burial
Post by: hen2010 on Tuesday 12 January 16 17:24 GMT (UK)

Hi just a quick question if a burial record just states the parish and county...in my case in the Parish of Rushden in county of Northamptonshire where would they likely have been buried?

The Newton Road Cemetery in Rushden dates from 1887.

Where did you get the burial record you are referring to?

It may well be at St Mary's Rushden ,actually in the churchyard which is where burials took place before the cemetery up Newton Road was built.
