Desperately seeking Hulme Burial places
« on: Tuesday 15 July 08 21:23 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am desperate to trace where my 3x gt grandparents are buried but have been completely unsuccessful and am looking for some inspiration.

I cannot even find a death for my 3xgt grandfather but as he appears in the 1861 census and his wife appears in the 1871 census as a widow i presume he died between these dates and must have been mistranscribed or not registered at all.

My 3 xgt grandmother dies 5th Jan 1881 at Bradshaw St, Hulme but am totally unable to find her burial place.
I have tried
Southern Cemetery
Ardwick       "
Philips Park  "
Manchester General "
St Georges, Hulme
All Saints, Chorlton on Medlock
St Saviors    "
St Johns, Deansgate
St Matthew, Campfield
St James, Rusholme
St James, Gorton
St Phillips, Salford
If anyone can possibly suggest anything i may have missed, i would be grateful for any ideas!
Thank You

Hi Andrea,

have you tried Moston, St Josephs? Especially if they were Catholic. I have relatives there from far flung corners of Gtr Mcer. May be worth a try.

Hi Heather
Thanks for the suggestion, will look it up although i am sure the family weren't Catholic ( as all of them marry in C of E churches)

Can't afford to rule anything out at this stage though!
Thanks for your help

Hi there
I've had a look on the 1848 map of Hulme, and it shows Christ Church, Queen St, with a burial ground. This is only a few streets away from Bradshaw St.
Genuki pages for Hulme says that Christ Church was formed before 1910 and closed 1890. It was Bible Christian (branch of Methodism) at the time of closure.

Worth a look maybe?

Thank you Barbara

This will definately go on my list for looking at!

I only wished i knew which area of Manchester she originated in case she's buried with parents, unfortunately she only ever puts Manchester ( can't find a baptism either!) and her husband puts Ireland, not very useful!

Thank you for you help
