Yardley Cemetery MI's
« on: Wednesday 25 May 11 11:20 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know if there are MI's for Yardley cemetery?  I've contacted the cemetery itself & they've provided me with info.  but they don't have a note of inscriptions.  They suggested looking in the library but I can't get there. The details for the grave I have are:

Matilda Jackson   
Died 22 Jul 1951
Buried Yardley cemetery, section 61
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi the section number is not much help if you have the plot No., it would be very easy to find. The sections are NOT marked so one cannot tell where one starts and another finishes.  If you can supply the plot No. I can go and look for you, Yardley is my local Cemetery. The plot No. has around five digits, regards, John.

Hi John,

thank you so much for the offer but I've managed to locate the grave through some kind people on a Birmingham website.  I only got the details in the last couple of days but I really appreciate your kind offer.
Keep checking back though.  I may post another query re this grave as I'm now trying to find out if the person who bought the grave also put the stone up !!!

Many thanks,
Alison
