Does anyone have or know where to search for burials at Colne cemetery? I am looking for the grave of Emma Spencer who was buried 1960s or there abouts

You could always contact the cemetery direct;

http://www.pendle.gov.uk/forms/form/22/en/grave_search_request_form

alternatively the website Cemsearch has details of all graves in Colne Cemetery which have a headstone. They will send you (on-line) a list of all people with the surname you have requested - giving details of who is mentioned on the headstone -- it did use to cost £6 or only £2 if there are not many with that surname.

May have gone up in price since I last used the service.

Did you not check freebmd to establish the exact year?   www.freebmd.org.uk shows it was 1964
