Hello,
Gloucestershire is very far a way for me. Does anybody live near Gloucestershire Archives that are willing to do a bit of research for free?
I need help in finding a burial for Jame Gwynn who died on 21 Oct 1942 at The Infirmary Eastington, Gloucestershire, Aged 18 years old. His home address was 6 Woodcock Lane, Gloucestershire. His Occupation: General Labourer..
I have had help from a local Priest from the area and he has suggested St. Cyr's churchyard, in which case the details of the person, but not necessarily of the grave will be recorded in the Church burial registers.
There is also the possibility that a burial could have taken place at St. Michael and All Angels, Eastington or possibly at a non-conformist Church, the only one of which had a burial ground in Stonehouse was the Congregational Church in the High Street (now demolished).
I did write to the Cemeteries about 6 months ago asking for a free search, but never got a reply back. I assumed they are rigid on their genealogy policy. Gloucester City Council offers a genealogy service to search the burial & cremation registers. (Research is for cemeteries only) The cost £39.02. I don't have the money to do this.
Just to be able to locate his grave would give relief to my aunt.
If anyone could help with this research you would be making a little old lady very happy.
Thank you for your time.
Angie
