Had a quick visit to St Peters church today. I met the gardener who helped me look for the grave. Unfortunately we were unable to locate it and he did not recognise the name. That is not to say she is not there as there are lots of graves and time was limited. I have passed my phone number onto the gardener who will speak to the vicar and if he comes up with anything will ring me. There is no listing of graves though. Will still try to get to Radlett soon but I am informed that the graves there are not in good order.

Thanks Lifes too short for all your help. Which Church is St Peter's? Sorry don't know the area

and have try so many places now I need to keep them all written down.

Anne may not have a stone though, but hopefully I could find her in the register of the places I am trying. I have written to some place and enclosed a SAE but some don't answer  Cry

Thanks again

St Peters church is in London Colney which is opposite Shenley where you would have thought your relative was buried. Prior to the M25 being build in between the villages are about 2/3 minutes apart by car. Not knowing the background of your relative I assume I am right in saying nobody still alive has any clues to her resting place. How frustrating !!!!

Many Thanks again. Yes all long gone. I just need to find her last resting place, so she is not forgotten, if you know what I mean.

Had a call from the gardener at St Peters church. He hs spoken to the warden and they have checked the church grave records. Unfortunately your great aunt is not listed as being buried there unless it is an unmarked grave. Back to square one I,m afraid.

Just an update. I tried Harrow cemetery office.

They don't have Annie either.

So if anyone one comes across my Annie Darwent died 24 Jan 1951,

please let me know. I think she will be in an unmarked grave, so she

will only turn up in a register.

I am running out of cemeteries. Thank you all for your help.
