Chelmsford Cemetery Burial - 9th December 1960
« on: Monday 14 April 08 23:09 BST (UK) »
Hi Smiley

North East Pensioners seek help from the kind people of Chelmsford......

My friend has just learned, from the very helpful Bereavement Services Officer of Chelmsford Borough Council, that Emma Mary Ann Crickett was buried on 9th December 1960 in Chelmsford Cemetery, Section B area Grave No. 7826.

If anyone happens to be visiting that area of the Cemetery, could they please see if there is a headstone on grave 7826 and if so, let us know what it says?

Also, if anyone is visiting the library, could they please check if there were any notices in the Essex Chronicle a few days prior to the burial and if there was any obituary or acknowledment in the two weeks following, for Emma Mary Ann Crickett?

Emma Mary Ann was 70 when she died and her address was 3 Queen Street, Chelmsford where she had apparently lived since 1945 with her husband, George, who died in 1962. We have been told that George Crickett was a professional entertainer and he was also the verger of St John’s Church, Moulsham for many years up to his death. If anyone can provide any other information about him in either of these roles or generally, it will be much appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Nanny Jan

Thanks for the information. I have had a look on that site but there is no mention of her Undecided. I have also checked on the National Burial Index.

We will keep our fingers crossed that someone will be able to find something about Emma and/or George from some other source down in Chelmsford.

Hi

This is a brief update and also a Thank You to manicmarcus who contacted me by PM and offered to go to Chelmsford Cemetery to check out the grave.

The results of the subsequent Cemetery visits and discussions with Council staff were also conveyed to me by PM. Unfortunately, there is no headstone on the grave but we now know that George (who was cremated in 1962) also had his ashes buried in the same plot.

I am most grateful for that information and for the time and effort that went into finding it.

Should anything else come to light about this couple I would be very pleased to hear about it.

Thank You
