« on: Monday 13 June 11 13:54 BST (UK) »
Hi
I have just found out that my Ggrandfather is buried in Bowling Cemetery, and was wondering if anyone is visiting there to ask if thay could see if there is a grave stone and let me know so I could visit.
His name is Allen Lee he died 1903 he is in section V grave number 242 in Con (consecrated) section.
Many Thank's

I have family buried in Bowling Cemetery and had a search done in August 2000, I found the staff there extremely helpful.  The cemeteries usually have more details about the person buried than is shown on a death certificate.  I found out the names of two sets of my great grandparent's parents which enabled me to find the marriage and births of my gr gr grandparents.  There was a very reasonable standard charge which if I remember rightly searched the records for up to four graves.  The address is Cemeteries & Crematoria, Scholemoor Cemetery & Crematorium, Necropolils Road, Bradford BD7 2PS.  The tel no at the time was 01272 571313.
Good Luck
Quigs
