If any one want cemetery plans from Lancashire burial ground. Most of them are now back on the Lancashire resources threads. Another time consuming effort by MancsMan.

Dear Migky and Failsafe,

Thank you both for your helpful suggestions, i have managed to get hold of a map of Gorton cemetery with the alphabetical section areas indicated.  I will make an appointment with Blakeley cemetery when I am next up there.

Does anybody know are the plot numbers just random or is there a logical sequence to them.  Has anybody seen a grave for ' James Molyneux Leach ' at Gorton cemetery plot 318 when they been researching?  we assume there is no headstone but we might be wrong about that.

thanks all good to join your group

I keep telling you Cowgirl, you need the letter which precedes the number. This can only be obtained by paying on the Manchester burial site or making further inquires at Balckley cemetery in person. With out it you are looking for a needle in a heystack

Hey Cowgirl, might be worth you contacting this person as they seem to have the same picture as you of your g/g/greatgrandfather. You never know there might be a link to you and your family. They may have even paid for the burial records and give you the missing infomation you need to find the correct grave? AS they seem to know more about the history with them been a member of the Manchester&Lancashire family history society. They would also have access to maps and many records not available to none member like my self. Every avenue is worth exploring and as it is free too.

So to make a PM hopefully I've met the correct criteria now.
I presume the PM automatically goes straight to the recipients email
address without appearing here ?
How do I send you a PM with my email address ?
Thanks for taking the time to read my posts.
