   Ok .....does the local records office hold copies of the burial books. I know my local in Leighton Buzzard has copies of both the parish church and the "new " cemetery.

 Armed with the exact date and place (we now hope) maybe they will be able to check......I don't know clutching at straws maybe. I am still going through Shauns site but it seem to have all angles covered.

I have to sleep sometimes Blue !!  ;D ;D ;D

Thanks for the Allerton .... but we did try there with no results and we know now he's buried in Woolton !!

Woolton burial books for 1926 aren't at the RO are they ? but I have just sent Allerton an email .... just in case .... they may refer me on .... which would be very cool !

Thanks for thinking about us !

Hi All

If you don't get any joy, I'm happy to give the man at the council a ring again, he was so helpful before with the 'he's not here or there'

Well I heard from Allerton !!  :-\

I have looked in our records for Robert W Stead and could not find him.
The only thing I can suggest the Central Library in William St.
 
There phone number is 0151 233 5817 they will have the year you are looking for in other Liverpool Cemeteries sorry I was unable to help.

Back to square one !! ............  :P

Have just spoken with Paul at Liverpool Record Office

He is 'confused' over death announcement in Liverpool Echo, in that if he was buried in a churchyard it would give the saints name of the church??? as St Stephens for the service is mentioned.

Anyway, the RO holds registers for St Peters Woolton up to 1901. 1926 is still most probably at the church.

He also suggested Allerton but we 'know' he's not there??

As you say, we're back to square one.
