Scarborough cemetery photographs - COMPLETED, thanks!
« on: Saturday 19 April 08 08:26 BST (UK) »

Hi

Is there anyone willing to take a couple of photographs for me please? I am unlikely to get back to the 'homeland' for several months yet and have just discovered the resting place of a few rellies, so I'm keen to get some pics.

Anyone interested, here are the details ...

REBE FLORENCE DOBSON
Woodlands, L 1 - 18, buried 08/04/1957, aged 60 yrs

KATE AGNES DOBSON
Manor Road, L (BOR) B 27, buried 27/03/1963, aged 85 yrs

FAITH DOBSON
Manor Road, P 11 - 31, buried 13/04/1895, aged 76 yrs

JOHN DOBSON
Manor Road, P 11- 31, buried 16/07/1900, aged 82 yrs

You can pm me for an email address to send them to.

Many thanks in anticipation,

MT Wink

Sorry - going to BUMP this one as I need some help please!!

I have a real query with the death date for JOHN DOBSON here as the grave details from Woodlands Crematorium that I received today say that he was buried on the 16th July, 1900, but the transcribed copy I have of the Dobson Family Bible says that he died on the 17th!! Presumably he suffocated in his coffin??  Grin

I know that I should order the death cert, but this is by far the easier way to do it - or at least it would be if I still lived there!

I really would appreciate someone nipping over to the plot and seeing what date he died.

Thanks in anticipation,

Hi MansfieldTerrier
I am hoping to make my annual pilgrimage to Scarborough sometime in the next few weeks.  I will be happy to take photos for you as I trawl through the cemeteries looking for my Abrams.

If anyone else wants photos taken at Manor Road or Woodlands let me know.

Hi MT
Yes of course you can.  I have plans for both the cemeteries so it shouldn't be difficult to find them all for you.  My partner is used to being dragged through graveyards now and is happy to be the cameraman Smiley  He even shows some interest from time to time!

Once the trip is organised I'll let you know the date and forward the photos when we get home.

Hi - I'm doing what I can to piece together my family tree from 1900 - most of my folk were from Scarborough. I've got photos of a number of the ones who died before I was born and thinking of the next step to locate graves, fo and get photos, there may be some in Manor Road.

What information is held on the plans you have? Even knowing where all the Websters are would be a good start and unfortunately I haven't got dates of death for the people I'm looking for.

One key one is my great uncle Fred Webster, as ironically his business was as a mason carving the gravestones, his workshop was in Manor Road.

Hi Dave

It's not as simple as just rooting around the boneyards! You need to contact Woodlands Crem, giving them details of your ancestors and they'll give you plot/location details.

They're very helpful!

Thanks - I rang them earlier this week but they need full names and death dates which sort of catch22's me as I've got as far as the 1901 census then a bit stuck - I wondered if the plans showed where all the Websters were which would cut down the field work.

No, they don't.  Embarrassed

The plans only show the 'zones' of the cemetery, ie area 'A', area 'O', etc.

The plans are really no use without you knowing the plot.

However, if you pm me your email, I'll be glad to send you scanned copies of the plans.

Dave, Do you have a William and Mary Webster in your tree?  The reason I ask is I happen to have taken a photo of a gravestone for them in Snainton.  The gravestone also has the name of Charles Webster, their grandson, on it.  William Webster was a farmer of East Carr House, Snainton.  I am more than happy to give you the transcription or forward the photo if it is of interest?

When I visited Woodlands the year before last I only had to give them the surname I was researching and they printed off a list of them all.  It's strange they couldn't do that for you.

Yes we do have Snainton links as well but that side of it is extremely hazy for me. Basically loads of Websters in the Falsgrave part of Scarborough, Rawlings and Codling from Cloughton. I understand my great grandad on both sides (my mum and dad were first cousins) came from Exeter and married into the Rawlings.

Thanks both

PS I had a John Dobson in the family as well, he married my father's sister, but he's a later one as he died in the late 70s. Don't know if he was of Scarborough origins or not.

Hi Sharon

When you next visit Scarborough, could you please photograph a couple of graves for me please?  They are both in Dean Road Cemetery.

Hannah Hewson d1881.  Plot number F 33 - 21
Elizabeth Hewson d1899.  Plot number F 30 - 21.

There may be another - I'm waiting to hear from burial records in Beverley re Abraham Jackson Hewson who died in 1846.  I'll let you know about that when I hear from them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sharon

Sure, no problem.  Going up first week of July so hopefully you will have the other information by then.
