Thank you, that's very helpful advice. Nothing on CWGC or Changi so I will look into arrivals in Australia - perhaps he got out before the invasion.

Family History Beginners Board / How to find a civilian death in Singapore in 1941

My ancestor was a Civil Engineer in Singapore in 1941 and then nothing more is heard of him. Is there any way of finding out when he died? Thank you for any help!

Yes, that's a good idea. The three girls were infants, it's certainly possible they decided not to go for a headstone. Thanks!

That's really kind of you, thank you. It is certainly a lottery as to whether memorials from that long ago can still be found. Probably this is a dead end(!). I do appreciate your help.

Thank you all so much for your helpful replies! Eddier, that is such a kind offer of the plan for the particular area of the cemetery. I am looking for grave A1436, where according to an entry in my family Bible, are buried three daughters who died in infancy, Millicent Hood (1881), Florence Hood (1882) and Melinda Hood (1886). Had they lived they would have been my great-aunts. It is also good advice to contact Middlesbrough Council, and to look at the other queries on Rootschat. Thank you.

Hello, I am new to RootsChat ... I am trying to find out whether there is a plan of Linthorpe New Cemetery in Middlesbrough showing grave numbers. I know the date of death and the grave number, but it is a big cemetery and it would help to narrow down my search. Can anyone help? Thank you!
