Hi Penny

Sorry, if I confused you, it was nothing to do with your post.

I typed a comment about a Rootschatter finding the grave (no stone) of an ancestor of mine in Canwick Road Cemetery and then realised I'd already typed something similar when the thread first started, so I deleted my response.

that's ok then. I have the CD  from the Lincs FHS  of Lincoln Burials which gives plot numbers if you need anything looking up

[LizzieW]

Thank you.  I presume you mean just Lincoln cemeteries.

Hi Lizzie - yes just Lincoln. The CDs I have cover the following

Canwick Road (Old and New) 1856 - 1985

Canwick Road 1986 - 1999

St Swithins (on Canwick Road) 1890 - 1999

Newport 1856 - 1942 and 1943 - 1999

St Peter in Eastgate 1856 - 1999

If you or anyone else needs a look up I'd be more than happy.

The office at Canwick Road cemetery is more than happy to help you locate a plot if you have the plot  number but always best to give them a call and let them know when you plan to visit.

Thanks Penny, when I have time I'll look at the details of my Lincolnshire ancestors to see which ones died in Lincoln itself.

worth bearing in mind that SOMETIMES people died in the surrounding villages but were buried in Lincoln when local graveyards ceased being used but the CD does give the last address of the deceased.
 Let me know when you need anything looking up

I've just opened up a massive new line of Chambers family and found a few probate entries for some but still have lots to go through and sort out, doubtless all the ones I had and dismissed before are records I now need!!

Don't know if you still need help - you can buy a CD of the Lincoln burials for £10 from the Lincs Family History Society
