After some research of the Gorton Cemetery records it seems there is an Elsie Burgess who is the daughter of Edith Burgess also buried in this plot.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I have a photograph of a gravestone for a family plot, there are several members buried their.
Unfortunately it is difficult to make out some engraving due to moss and debris on the stone.
I have the details of where the stone is and family buried there.(Gorton Cemetery), is there any way i can get someone to visit the stone and decipher the engraving for me?
I am in Australia so i cannot do it myself. Any suggestions on how to get this done would be appreciated.
Thank you

Excellent work!

Neale,
Thank you for checking. Yes it could be. I never thought of checking of checking for a miss spelt mother.
I will have a look.

Census and Resource Discussion / Looking for a Jones Boy
« on: Friday 06 September 24 02:07 BST (UK) »
I have a Jones Family from the 1921 census, please see the attachment, It is the son of William Thomas Jones (born Staffordshire 1879) and Clara Jones (nee Talbot born Staffordshire 1881).
They resided in Staffordshire at 7 Castle Street Chesterton.
The transcription lists him a Auther but it could be Luther.
I can't find a birth record, the closest i can find is a W L T Jones with mother a Talbot.
Can i have some opinions on this young lad.
Thank you

Jo6100,
Thank you. I thought that but didn't want to influence any decisions.
Let's see if other people agree with us.
Cheers
