Hi,
Can anyone tell me where to find records of Milton Road, Portsmouth Cemetery. I am trying to find burial records for John LOCK who died 11 August 1908.
Thanks
Fern

Fern he could be in either Kingston or Highlands Road, neither are too far away

Hi Fern
I was in Portsmouth a few weeks ago trying to find a grave in Kingston cemetry and found a notice saying all enquiries about Kingston should be made at Milton Cemetry i don't know if that helps..good luck.

The records for Portsmouth cemeteries are held at Portsmouth City Record Office and can be accessed in the search room there. There are names indexes to Mile End Cemetery, Kingston and Milton.
Portsmouth City Museum and Records Office
Museum Road
Portsmouth
Hampshire
PO1 2LJ
They have an email address for the search room:
searchroom [at] portsmouthcc.gov.uk (replace the [at] with the appropriate symbol)
They may be able to help with a one-off enquiry.

Sorry Valda - typing at the same time!!

Hi Fern
Milton Cemetery also has an e-mail link on the page Valda gave, might be worth shooting the same mail to both 
Let us know what you get, won't you
