Graveyards and Gravestones / Re: Finding grave plot - Stony Stratford

I did find that the church was permanently shut sometime during the 1960s, it's located just down  from London Road Cemetery so makes sense they're in there!

Thanks

Graveyards and Gravestones / Finding grave plot - Stony Stratford
« on: Sunday 09 February 25 15:53 GMT (UK)  »
Good Afternoon Everyone!

I am currently trying to find my GG Grandfathers' grave, I know he is definitely buried in the town of Stony Stratford, Buckinghamshire but I've had no luck finding the grave plot. His name is Ernest Samuel Anderson 1877-1939. I did find this at my local library although it doesn't specify which cemetery he is in, can anybody possibly help in locating it?

Kind Regards,

Tom

This is all very interesting what you've managed to get together, the only thing i'm unsure about is the Thomas Pratt born in 1898. I'm not sure where he fits in really, but hopefully i can find out some more info on him. I'll make him my next priority.

Thanks

Good Evening,

Thanks very much to you all, i had a feeling she had the surname Smith as i'd found a few records that matched but the surname is so common it makes it pretty hard to trace back. I'll have a look into this as new paths have been opened.

Many Thanks

Bedfordshire / George Pratt - Louise ? Marriage records
« on: Friday 06 October 17 17:54 BST (UK)  »
Good evening all!

I was wondering if anyone could help me with my Great Great Grandmothers Maiden surname, for a few years now I've been trying to find any records for what her family name was before she got married.

She married a George Pratt 01/01/1867 Leighton Buzzard - 1963 Leighton Buzzard in 1891
Her name was Louise ? 05/11/1866 Leighton Buzzard - 13/03/1948 Biggleswade

Many Thanks,

TJames

Hello Ian,

Thanks for the full translation, now I have some new names that I'm sure will fit on the family tree somewhere although I'm not to sure were! I am doing this research for a man called Urho Vienonen who i posted on sometime back, his father is unknown so I assume there is a possibility that Juha is his grandfather or a great-uncle as the village is pretty small so i can't imagine there are many other fitting names of people. So, the search goes on!

Many Thanks

Thanks very much for that Ian! It's a bit strange that there are three people on the document, maybe one of them is a witness or Juha's "äiti" (mother or maybe the next of kin). I shall look into it more! and hopefully i will find some answers!

Many Thanks

TJames
