Graveyards
« on: Sunday 19 June 16 10:02 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know if Crossthwaite Church yard at Keswick has been mapped, and if so where I can find burial plots.
I'm also looking for a map of All Saints Churchyard Cockermouth, I have the plot number of my ancestor but need a map to identify it
Thanks

Thanks Artkane
I have mailed the CFHA but unfortunately didn't get a reply
I looked through the lists you linked me too, but I don't see anything obvious

Cumbria Archive Service may well know.

There is an e-mail address for Whitehaven on this page

For Allerdale enquire at Perry's Palace on the Cloffocks. You will find Robert Deacon and his staff more than helpful.

Hi Cumb Sausage
Tried that, Robert has a plot map for Cockermouth Allerdale Cemetery but not the ones I need
