Hi is it possible to find burial record for Harry Smith born Liverpool 1880/81.

Have you looked here to see if either of the 2 you listed left wills etc which may help to determine if either is your Harry

A lot of the Liverpool area burial records are not online at the moment. Hopefully coverage will improve with Family Search uploading images for the area's cemeteries. Most of Wirral's are now online, Bootle Cemetery is online, cemeteries in the Southport area are online and St James' Cemetery in Liverpool is now online. As you know there is good online coverage of some Liverpool cemeteries such as Toxteth Park and Ancestry has good coverage of the C of E and RC cemeteries. Unfortunately access to Allerton, Anfield, Everton, Kirkdale and West Derby usually involves a visit to the archives or a council cemeteries search.

Thank you for replies. I have been informed that Harry Smith was living at Back Salisbury Street Liverpool.( before 1950 ) He was married at St Simons Church Liverpool ? C/E so may have been buried in Anfield Cemetery but only possibility some couples married in C/E churches because it was cheaper than marrying in catholic churches.

Everton Cemetery is a possible for that address.

Hi don`t think Harry would have left a will he came from a poor family and would not have any assets. Everton Cemetery is in Long Lane Liverpool. I think a cemetery closer to home would have been where he was buried ? Anfield Cemetery. Harry worked for The Mersey Docks and Harbour Board a Hydraulic Crane Driver. Living at 47 Back Salisbury Street Liverpool 3. I wonder if I contacted Anfield Cemetery with these details and record of possible death record they could find burial record.

My Everton ancestors are buried at Everton it was the district cemetery even though it is located outside the area.
