Hi all,
Does anyone know any information about the Hull asylum, East Riding. My ancestor was there in 1911 and died there I wondered where they might be buried and if there would be a record of this.
-
Do you mean the one at Walkington?

Burials might be on FindMyPast.

I believe the Hull Asylum was De La Pole at Willerby, not sure what records exist. Yje Hull History Centre may be worth a try.

Asylums had their own cemeteries so he could be buried there if his family didn't claim his body.

Unfortunately hull history centre is closed due to covid.

That's great thank you
I wonder if the grave is still there
-
Hopefully it is!
Sadly there are no graves registers on FamilySearch for that cemetery, or anything else useful.

Thank you. Wish the centre was open. Might post to see if anyone would look for the grave for me as I am no where near Hull. X

Hull City Council website doesn't appear to be working at the moment, but somewhere on that site are the contact details for the bereavement services at Chanterlands Avenue, they should be able to provide you with details/map of the location of the grave. That would help anyone willing to look for the grave .
:)

That's very helpful. Thank you xxx

I live in Hull and would be happy to look if you can share the exact location of the plot as it's quite a big cemetery.
Hull Bereavement Services is still in operation as I have needed to contact them, though the office is closed for people to attend in person I think. Try them on 01482 614976 or email them on: bereavement.services[AT]hullcc.gov.uk
Just let me know what you find and I'll see what I can do. :)
