WOW...thank you very much, I've always wondered when they passed. Do you have any idea how I could maybe locate their graves at all? I honestly have never done anything like this before so have no idea.

If Brian can locate the burials from his Leeds records, then you will know which cemetery they are in.  If they are not recorded in his records, then you will probably have to resort to dawnsh's suggestion.

Good luck!

Paul George? Those details sound like Percys...wonder if it was the same person?

No sign of a Percy Hobson buried in Leeds?

Thank you Brian, I'm wondering now with you posting about a Paul George if that was Percys real name...I have never heard of this person in my family otherwise, and as he's in the same grave as Letitia my grandmother, and her daughter Pearl, it sounds like it could be him. Do you agree? If that's the case you've told me something that no one else in my family knows.

All I have is a list of names telling me who is buried in a particular location cross referenced to a shared plot.
