Title: Is St. Budeaux, Devonport a cemetery?
Post by: Sharron__ on Saturday 03 November 18 00:37 GMT (UK)
I found a burial record for my ancestor on FindMyPast and at the top of the page it said ‘Burials in the Parish of St. Budeaux, Devonport’.   Would St. Budeaux be a Church with a cemetery?

Thanks fo any help.

According to the mighty wiki, St Budeaux was established as a parish in 1482.

You could message them if you go here: 

http://www.st-budeaux-church.co.uk/contact.html

or perhaps write c/o Vicar (Stephen Beach according to website),  postal address is:

The Vicarage
Agaton Road
St Budeaux
Plymouth
PL5 2EW

Apparently there is also a facebook page.

If you can get precise plot details, (and many churches have mapped their churchyard,) I may be able to get photos later on this year.

Thank you so much for this.  I will send the vicar a message and keep you posted. 

Thanks again.
