Thanks for your response. I have had a look on an on Google Earth and can see some headstones. Most do appear to be more recent than the dates I'm looking at. I have contacted the council to see if they can help with the search. Hopefully they can give me an answer. I also contacted the archives who have confirmed that my great grandfather died in the workhouse but have no records of burials unfortunately.
Family story is that over time the headstone fell over, an older relative talks of going to the grave and seeing it but cannot remember the exact location.
I think when I come to Wales, we will go to the cemetery anyway, it's not large and if there is a headstone there, we should be able to find it. I just don't want to leave and find out later that it's at a different location a few miles away.
