New Radford cemetery?
« on: Tuesday 14 April 09 19:26 UTC (UK) »
My gt gt gt grandfather  Thomas Gagg died in September 1878, he was living at Regents place ,new Radford, Nottingham.
His son Edward also lived there and died a few years later.

I am going to visit  our families ancestral  village of Misterton  in the summer and was hoping to  find Thomas and Edward's graves whilst on my trip.
Could anyone tell me where they are likely to be buried, would it be at the general cemetery?

If so is there anyway of finding out if they are buried there prior to my trip.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Alan

Hello Alan….

Welcome to Rootschat  Smiley

I can tell you from the Nottinghamshire FHS index they are buried at Christ Church, Radford.

Burial -  Radford Christ Church
THOMAS GAGG, aged 81, 1st October 1878, abode Bloomsgrove Street
EDWARD GAGG, aged 56, 9th March 1885, abode 1 Regent Place

I am not sure exactly where that church is/was, it seems to be Ilkeston Road, Radford, hopefully someone that knows the area better than I do can give some more information as to where it is.

Kind regards
Sheila.

Hi

I hate to say it but I am am not sure the church still exists.  I have lots of records but cannot find the church still in existance. I cannot see where you are based but before you come to nottm please check it is still there. Please contact me for further information.

I think unfortunately that you are right, I did some checking on the net yesterday and it looks like it might have been amalgamated with All Souls in the Southwell diocese.
I sent a query to them and I am waiting a reply.
I also found on another website listing Nottingham churches an entry for Christ church in italics, which apparently means -destroyed-disused or demolished.
So it is not looking good.

I have traced my family extensively over the last ten years or so and have masses of information on them going back in a direct line from  the early 1600's tomy grandson Jack , yet not once have i found  the grave of any of my direct line.

Found quite a few for other parts of the Gagg families, so maybe one day I will find some of mine as well, I will just have to keep on searching and maybe with my research and  the goodwill of people like you I will find some of them.

Thanks for your help it is much appreciated.
