I am trying to find the burial place of my great Grandmother Susannah Dickinson wife of George. She died 15 June 1927 at 123 Beckett street Leeds. There is a Susannah Dickenson buried in Beckett St Cemetery but it is the wrong Date& Husband. Susannah was born in Pickering North Yorkshire She was 76 when she died..Thanks in advance

Sorry about that Ian! ;)
Just to add the address that Dancing Lady gives is for the St James Hospital (workhouse) and Susannah is buried with 21 others in a common grave.

Wow. Thank you Both. Can't really believe it. Problem solved.,

No problem!
Please note on the burial record the place of birth, Leeds not Pickering.
[Although it doesn't mention who provided the death information]

HI, This is very interesting. I think George is my Great grandfather but not with Susan/Susannah. He was born in Follifoot and had a family before he met Susannah. I am about 90% certain that Susannah's husband is my great grandfather. In the first instance I would be interested to know if you have ever found a marriage for them or any information at all would be really helpful.
