Thomas Thorpe was born in 1912 and died in 1975 aged 62 in Barrow-in-Furness. Has anyone any idea where he might be buried?

You will probably need his address at the time of his death. This shows the areas covered by Barrow reg district https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/barrow-in-furness.html

Do you know for certain he was buried and not cremated?

No, I have no idea as I only found out recently that he had died in Barrow.

If Hilda was born 31.3.1906 her death was registered June 1993 in Millom RD
