If anyone is going to Philips Park Cemetery i would be gratefull if the could photograph a couple of graves and email them to me.

Grave Nos 1696 Mary E Slater, John Slater , John Samuel Slater.
                  595  Georgina Davies, John William Davies, Annie Davies.

       Thanks  John (australia)

First of all you need to know the graves full location. What section they are in ; Conformist ( C-of-E ) Nonconformist  or Roman Catholic and then the letter that precedes the numbers you have? You can obtain the full burial records from this site but you will have to pay for them. Just the number on it's own is not much use as the cemetery is very large and you could be looking all day for them plus many of the common grave stones are buried or over grown now.

If no ones done them for you by Easter I may be able to get down & do them for you then, unless anyone can go before.

I want to go & take some of my gt-grandparents grave in Plot C, but right now I am supposed to be resting up for an operation - lol I kind of dont think my dr knows I am working 6 day weeks - so I cant get down there to do them until I get a break - and the next ones Easter!

You are welcome,
wish I could get there sooner, but right now its dark when I get out of work, so even tho I pass by the cemetery - and can actually SEE plot "C" & "A" as I pass, I cant get in to photograph anything!
(Just double checked & mines in "A" not "C" - but both are by the old main gate)

Hi Gaille

Sorry for stealing your thunder on this one, but I picked up this update just before a visit to Philips Park on another grave hunt.

So the saying goes - "lets kill two birds with one stone"

Hi John

Grave C1696 (Slater) no headstone (1 photo of plot)

Grave N595 (Davies) has headstone (3 photos of plot)

I have had to reduced these from nearly 5meg each to below 500k each, so if you want the full version please PM with your email addy and I will forward them to you.

Regards
Ken
