Benjamin Carrington d.1850 Liverpool
« on: Friday 11 December 15 08:01 GMT (UK) »
Hello Rootschatters,
I am seeking the burial details of Benjamin Carrington, Dec 1/4 1850, Liverpool, 20, 259. I have searched the Lancs OPC site, but couldn't find anything. Being unfamiliar with Lancashire resources, what other options do I have, other than purchasing the certificate?
Thanks in advance.

Ancestry have burials for Liverpool Anglican parishes - nothing.  Liverpool Catholic burials - nothing.  Lancashire burials - nothing in 1850.  :'(

As I'm sure you already know, English death certificates will only give you a residence at the time of death.  They will not give you a place of burial.

Added:  there is nothing on FreeReg under Lancashire.   :'(

Thanks for taking the time to search for me, BumbleB. I was hoping to find the burial to confirm this one is "my" Benjamin, my 4x great grandfather. I'm trying to avoid an unnecessary certificate purchase.  :)

I've also tried looking at the on-line newspaper archives at FindMyPast - nothing  :'(

Thanks BumbleB!
I had another look at the parish where Benjamin and his wife Ann had some more children baptised. The burials are from the Bishops Transcripts; in theory he could have still been buried there. More likely because there are two Hannah's and two Isabella's baptised, but no burials for them either.

There's a list of Liverpool Cemeteries and Burial Grounds here:
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LAN/Liverpool/#Cemeteries

If you click on each church, you will be taken to an information page about the church.
Usually there are the dates it was operating, and where the records can be found?

E.G. All Saints closed in 1844, so you can cross that one off the list!

Thanks for that.
I just re-checked the census; Benjamin is on the 1841 in Gilbert Street, no sign of a wife or family. He's not on the census for 1851, so it's looking more likely the 1850 death is the right one.
