Which Belfast Cemetery?
« on: Tuesday 05 March 13 12:14 GMT (UK) »
Relative Mary Fitzgerald died 20 Jan 1932 at Indiana Ave, Belfast. Can anyone tell me the nearest RC Cemetery to this address please? Mary was from Limerick originally and I have found a death notice in the Irish Independent but unfortunately it gave no funeral details.

Thank you,

She doesn't appear on search system at http://www.belfastcity.gov.uk/burialrecords/, but the page gives details and contact info regarding cemeteries that are not covered by the search.

I would just like to suggest you also think of Limerick.  Many people choose to be buried in their original homeplace.
Rodgers/Rogers N Ireland and Australia
Myers  N Ireland
Rose Ann Daly N Ireland
McKissick  N Ireland and Scotland
Susanna Hall  Belfast N Ireland
Heaney and Dargan Co Down N Ireland

Thank you lucybella. I did start in Limerick as many of the family are buried there and also searched the Mt St Lawrence Register to no avail, hence the Belfast burial query. i was beginning to think I'd never find her!

I am delighted to say that  a very kind person has sent me  photographs of the grave headstone in Milltown. A real treasure for present day family.

Thanks to everyone for their help
