Looking for a grave Robert Donaldson Graham 1911.

[Lizzie Smyth Collis]

Hello Im trying to find my great grandfather Robert Donaldson Graham - born 1876 in Scotland, he died unexpectedly in 1911 (24 February 1911)in Sunderland.  I know he was a jeweller or watchmaker - I would love to find where he is buried.  Many thanks

According to the probate record, he lived at 18 Barnard Street, Sunderland, and died on 27th August.

There are some sad reports of his death - e,g, Shields Daily Gazette 04 March 1911

Might be best to change to the Durham Board, so that people with local knowledge can help.

Lizzie, if you have a subscription to Ancestry there is a fairly comprehensive tree re Robert. Remember though these trees always need double checking.

Is that Robert Donaldson Graham's marriage in 1904 Carlisle Cumberland to Elizabeth Thompson ?
Was Robert Donaldson Graham born in Stranraer Wigtownshire Scotland in 1876 , parents John Graham(Locomotive Engine Man) and Janet Donaldson ?
Have not looked at any trees , just looking at the 1881 Census and Familysearch.
