Title: Need some help, please
Post by: rosieapple on Monday 23 June 25 20:13 BST (UK)
I haven't used Rootschat for a long while, so hope I am doing it right, now.
I am trying to find the burial details of a Frederick William Tutty. He was living, before his death, in Tooting S.W London, but had been admitted to The West Park Road hospital,  where he died.
I don't know how long he was there for. That is also something i would like to know. He died on April 1953.
I have tried the hospital's own cemetery, I had tried cemeteries around and near the hospital, as well as the cemeteries in Tooting.
I cannot find where he was buried. I checked findagrave and deceased online as well as emailed a few organisations, like National Archives, etc. No one seems to know where he was buried. Can anyone help please

Was his wife Lillian Ada née Hinson? Where was she buried/cremated?

Perhaps a different couple?

He may have been cremated.
Was his wife buried?
What about his parents grave?

Have you tried local newspapers for a death announcement?

Unfortunately I don't have a subscription to the newspapers.
I have Ancestry sub, but can't find, from there, his burial place

Do you know he was definitely buried?

I had a Quick Look for newspapers but I don’t see any. I was thinking more local newspapers - sometime local libraries keep archives.

I appreciate you looking, for me, thank you. I am sorry, but I really don't know whether he was buried or cremated. His daughter was buried 2 years before he died, but he is nog in that cemetery, which was Streatham Cem in Tooting.

What about Caroline?

Caroline was cremated in the crematorium just a shirt distance from that cemetery that her daughter was buried in. I contacted the crem and they said that he was not there. The hospital he died in was an asylum and they had their own cemetery, but he isn't there, according to them

Rhank you so much for taking time out, to search, for me. It is a difficult one, that is for sure.
