Thank you Colin,
This information is very interesting, as we had an idea that there was a Spargo family plot
and now we know the location.

My Grandmother was the daughter of Florence Alice Gardiner Spargo and her second husband             
James Atherton Downham.

I am still searching for the burial place of Florence Alice Downham, the name given on her death certificate in 1925 - she died in Smithdown Road Institution as it was called then.
The logical place would be Toxteth Park Cemetery, though present family members ie my mother and my aunt think she could be in a Downham family plot ?

My mistake for typing December !!

I only have knowledge of Hubert, Percy and Marjorie.

Did Cyril die in infancy ?

Yes John Thomas was born in 1864 in Plymouth.

I have knowledge of the will he left to Florence.

Florence was my Great-Grandmother.

Could anyone help me with finding the cemetery, where my ancestors could be buried.
The family name would be Spargo.

John Thomas Spargo died in Bebington 24th December 1899 and was buried on the 27th.
He married Florence Alice Gardiner Smith in 1890.

Florence remarried to James Atherton Downham,
they were married at St. Catherine's on the 29th January 1902

Could the cemetery still be in existence or was it bombed during WW2 and details lost ?
Also  the interned moved?

Thank you.

Hi Glenclare,

Yes, Martha is on the 1881 census at 31 Shrewsbury Street, Stretford.
