Weaste Cemetery

[Salford Lass]

Hi HawkesFH

If they have done it I've never seen them, you can however get a grave description per surname, not per name for £6 from CEMSEARCH, (should come up in google). Elaine has transcribed all of Weaste Cemetery on her own, so if anyone wants a search I recommend her site first, if its not there then email, Agecroft Cemetery as suggested by Migky, when you have a grave number, if you wish for a photo, please post here and either myself or Heather will go and take one.

M & L FHS  have many things they transcribed that you simply buy from Their Shop at Clayton House, Piccadilly, Manchester.

They are not necessarily for sale in other venues.

I remember it as being a private publication in their society library at Clayton house, it was a white B4 booklet I think. May have been redone by now though

Hi again,

My offer still stands and Debbie it would be great to meet up sometime this year! I am also going back to Southern on these days if anyone needs a lookup - will need the section and grave number though.

Hi   and thank you so much everybody.   

Thank you for the information - nearly all news to me - and the offers to photograph.  All really appreciated.

I'm sorry I've not been back on sooner, but my mouse started smoking - by it's tail! a couple of nights ago. so I had to shut the computer off rapidly.  I got back pom without a mouse, but I couldn't master the Rootschat system.  Anyway I'm back in action.

Sorry I confused you Migky.  We're confused too, and that's only the tip of the iceberg!  Though it has to be said there was a lot going on in the religious world at this time and they won't be the only ones.

I just meant that we do know that Gurney is buried at Weaste and have all the details for the grave, except that the number was jot quite clear.  On our system I can sometimws tell if a digit isn't quite clear what it will be. 

Also, in reply to your question about th religion, I just meant that being buried at Weaste when most of the family were at Moston which is Catholic was a bit surprising, so might poiint to him not being.

I'll contact the relative I got this from, for clarity on the number.

Thank you for the kind offers to look at the grave.  Only thing is, I don't know if I'll find out in time.  We did know he is buried at Weaste, but I would love to see a picture of the area he's in and also what styae it's in and whether it's been taken over or anything?

Thank you all so much .

I will get back with the details.

Hi all

This is just a little note to say, thank you all for your kind offers and I'm really sorry I didn't get back with the checked grave number.  Maybe I should have picked a week when there was a bit less going on.

Thank you again.

Hi Emms

just as well you didn't get back to me because I have been without internet since last Saturday. I am usually free on Mondays and some weekends so if you need a look up just send me a pm and I will trot off. My friend lives on Cemetery road so it is always a good excuse to call for a coffee!!
Best wishes

Hi Heather

Thank you!  That's really appreciated.  My phone's on the blink, but when it's working clearly I'll ring and see if we can find the orginal and check the number.

By the way, is Cemetery Rd all rebuilt or does it have the old houses still?  My ggrandmother's family were living there when her brother joined the Alexian brothers and was caring for the cemetery.

Thank you again. 

Best wishes

Hi Emms,

It must be a week for gremlins, mine was a five year old busy nosey. My friends hamster chewed through her cable last week
There is one row of terraced houses left on Cemetery Road, what number did your family live in?
If it is still up i will take a pic for you.
