Could you help me please to find the plots for
John Mulhearn d 1894
Catherine Mulhearn d 1910
Patrick Mulhearn d 1910
They will be in the RC part of the cemetery but unlikely to have a headstone.
Many thanks Carol

Have found John but spelt with 2 LL

If you were to contact Barnsley Crematorium (they hold the burial records for the cemetery)they will send you a map of the Cemetery and the Section T with the grave marked for you so you can at least work out where it is.
Regards Carolanne

Thanks indeed for your speedy reply - I have walked round and round trying to find this grave.  Yes you have the right John Mulhearn d 1894 and you have also given me another name - Michael Mulhearn.  I suspected Patrick had a brother over here - I think you have found him.  Many thanks - Happy New Year

Now my brain is working - Carol you have found the first son of Patrick and Catherine - Michael born 1862 in Ireland.  I could not find him after 1871 and wondered if he had gone back to Ireland - thanks again  This now leads me down another path!  Housework? oh no more important things to do.
