I am researching the Stott family whose mother Helen Stott passed away in Luton at the end of 1897. The last known address on the 1891 census was 3 Crescent Road. What would be the nearest cemetrys? Would Kelly's directory hold any information on this family? Thanks in advance for any help.

You are all awesome. Thank you for the new information. I'm hoping to eventually track down living relatives of the family i.e. Montague, James etc who didn't come to New Zealand. I wonder if there are any Stotts still living in Luton!

I got a reply from the Bedfordshire Archivist .. she is still a mystery in some instances ... Helen died on 16 December 1897. She lived for the past 3 years with her son James at 3 Crescent Road, Luton. However, Helen ISN'T buried in those two nearest cemeteries and they don't have a record as to where she is buried!! Oh no! I think one of her daughters died the same year or very near her but can't find my notes regarding this .. I guess she could have been taken back to St Albans where her husband Ralph was buried many years earlier ... does anyone know the distance between Luton and St Albans? Thanks again everyone

No I haven't ordered her death certificate as I've been told the English death certificate would only have her date of death, age, and name. Is this wrong? She was last living at 3 Crescent Road, Luton.

I would only order an English death certificate if ALL other options have been tried. My one and only had the person died at home & the neighbour was the informant!
