Title: Burial 1916 sarah ward
Post by: illjaorterpa on Thursday 16 January 20 13:24 GMT (UK)

Hi
i have the death certificate of my greatgrandmother Sarah Ward and would like to find out where she was buried, Ive looked through the guide to burials but still not sure what I should do and where to look?
Sarah Ward died on 31 March 1916 aged 71 years old at her daughters house - 61 Station Road, Hammersmith?. I dont know the London area at all.
thanks for help
Jill

Have you thought there might be a family grave somewhere where others may have previously been buried

hi Louisa Maud
Sarahs husband was buried in Stanground,Peterborough and she moved to London to live with one of their daughter after his death - i cant imagine they could afford to ship her body back. i imagine she'd be buried locally to  Hammersmith i just need to know the name of the local municipal burial ground so i can contact them. Thank you for the reply.

Hello again Jill
Have you tried googling local burial grounds?
Hammersmith or Fulham a possibility
