Thanks Cass,
So if Elizabeth is buried in the same cemetery as her 1st husband the same might apply to William & Sarah Ann.
I'll try next to track down Stirling cemetery records.

Hi Cass,
Thanks for reply & the information on William & Elizabeth. Looks as though this might be a tough nut to crack.
I find it odd that Elizabeth was buried at Balhannah cemetery and William was buried at Stirling cemetery, I would have expected them to be in the same grave. This makes me wonder whether William was buried with Sarah Ann & that she is therefore in Stirling cemetery?
A quick check on Google maps told me that Crafers to Stirling is 1.7 km & Stirling to Balhannah is
14.4 km. Did Elizabeth have any connection to Balhannah?
Any thoughts on this?

Australia / Searching for the place of Burial of Sarah Ann Rogers in 1867
« on: Wednesday 24 September 25 20:36 BST (UK) »
From the South Australia Deaths Index 1842-1972, I have found these details of Sarah Ann’s death;
First name(s) Sarah Ann Last name Rogers
Gender Female Status Married Birth year 1826 Death year 1867 Death date 7 Jun 1867 Age at death 41 Residence Crafers Place Crafers District Adelaide State South Australia Registration number 27/391 Informant Husband Informant's name W Rogers.
I live in England & have no idea of how to track down her burial place in South Australia, so any help or suggestions from local family historians would be hugely appreciated, can anyone help with this?

Devonshire Resources & Offers / Littleham Exmouth Bishops Transcripts

Littleham Exmouth Bishops Transcripts
The parish registers of St Margaret & St Andrew, Littleham, Exmouth have a large gap in continuity for the following years;
Baptisms 1706-1743 Marriages 1706-1743 Burials 1678-1743
In an attempt to restore what can be from this loss, I have recently compiled an index of all the surviving Bishops Transcripts from 1699-1743. The index is available now on Genuki on the Littleham, Exmouth page under “Church Records”. It is also available on FreeReg & in the members area of the Devon Family History Society in the articles section.
