Grave of Councillor Howel Samuel EDWARDS died 1952 Penrhyn Bay?
« on: Wednesday 26 March 25 18:09 GMT (UK) »
His obituary said he was buried at Great Orme cemetery but I cannot find anything on Findagrave. As he was a prominent member of Llandudno society, I expected a gravestone.
Anyone familiar with this cemetery?

A tree on Ancestry shows his date of death as 25.3.1952.  Perhaps the tree owner could help with info re grave location.

Have you contacted the cemetary as having the date of death could help them locate a grave & tell you if there is a headstone

I have been to this cemetery and it’s very large.
Have you established that all the memorials there are recorded on findagrave?

The cemetery on The Great Orme belongs to St Tudno's Church. The church is only used for services occasionally I think, mainly in the summer.  It is a large grave yard.  I live in Penrhyn Bay.  We are going on holiday for a couple of weeks but I'm happy to have a look around the churchyard when we get back to see if I can find anything.

I think I'll check with the cemetery, if I can find a contact person.

I'll have a look around and get back to you. I see the probate mentions Penrhyn Isaf Road. It is only a few minutes walk from where we live  :)
