Title: Towcester Road Cemetery: Benjamin & Hannah Leah Carter
Post by: Paul Manning on Sunday 19 June 16 14:40 BST (UK)
I'm looking to confirm if the following residents of Far Cotton, Northampton are buried in Towcester Road Cemetery (or elsewhere):
Husband: Benjamin Carter believed to have died about March 1928,
Wife: Hannah (or Anna) Leah Carter, believed to have died about December 1924.
They had 6 sons, four of which were killed in WW1, and I hope to "join them together" on Find a Grave.  See my website www.paulmanning.net
Thanks in anticipation of your kind help!
Paul

Hi Sandy

You kindly helped with a Towcester Road Cemetery "look up" earlier this year: can I ask for your help again please?

My great uncle, Harry George Manning, died at 5 Southampton Road, Far Cotton, 14th February 1937.  Can you advise if he was buried at Towcester Road, and if so, any others are buried in his grave.

Any help is much appreciated!

Paul

I looked to see who Harry married and found his wife's burial as noted.

Towcester Road Cemetery
Elizabeth Lily Manning (nee Viney), aged 62, died at 5, Southampton Rd, 17-01-1952, buried 19-01-1952 in same grave.

I can not know if any other people are in the grave as it is noted in the Grave Books which I don't have.
