Death of little boy in Workhouse Infirmary - Require help locating burial info

[amypatricia1]

Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if someone can assist me in finding a burial record for this little one:
Cornelius Desmond, aged 1 and 10 months. Where Buried: Private.
He died in St George in the East workhouse infirmary.
(He is second from the bottom on attached image)
Document was found on Ancestry http://search.ancestry.com.au/search/db.aspx?dbid=1559
Tower Hamlets > St George in the East Union, Stepney > 1907 > Page 12 of 17.
If he is my relative (which I think he is) his mother's name is Ellen Desmond nee Brian and father is John Desmond.
If anyone could find a baptism or something for him too, that would be amazing. I would love to know more about his family.
Thank you kindly to anyone who is able to assist. I look forward to discussing this further with any interested parties.
Amy.

If you ordered his death certificate would that not confirm his father
Is this the marriage for John Desmond 21/7/1895 Parish Church of Shadwell in London
John Desmond age 25 Bachelor general labourer father William Desmond general labourer (deceased) address 5.Market buildings High Street
Ellen Brian age 29 Spinster 19,Moreen St father Cornelious Brian ( deceased ) coal whipper ?
Witnesses John Radley & Kate Brian

Not seeing a baptism for Cornelious Desmond but there is a birth registered 1906 St George in the East for a Cornelious Desmond ..
Going by the census forms there is a daughter Ellen Desmond b 1896

The board of guardians would have been using a cemetery for burials by the 1900's, most probably Tower Hamlets which is now a park.

The registers are deposited at the London Metropolitan Archives and aren't online.

You'll need to visit the LMA to search for a possible entry.

Since the burial is marked 'Private' rather than 'Parish', it's also possible that the family arranged for it elsewhere. As they may have been Catholic, you could also try St Patrick's RC Cemetery in Leytonstone. Their records for this date aren't online, but they are very helpful on the phone.

Thanks everyone for the responses. It's a shame the burials aren't online. I'm in Australia and cannot visit the LMA myself. I also don't wish to send anyone on a wild goose chase seeing as I'm not certain where the child was buried. I have ordered so many certificates from GRO recently, I was trying to avoid getting another one just yet for this little boy, but it seems I will have to! Thanks again.

I've seen the 1911 census but cannot confirm any others.
