Title: Burial for Kisby Draper 1932
Post by: peggysmum on Sunday 23 July 17 15:53 BST (UK)

Hello all. I wander if someone might be able to point me in the right direction for the burial of Kisby draper 1882-1932. He spent a lot of time in Leighton Buzzard, his parents lived on Bassett rd, Leighton Buzzard. Is there a cemetery near there which was in use in 1932.
Thankyou Tracey

Hi,
I had a look in www.deceasedonline
3 in Scotland and 3 in Lancashire for Kisby Draper. Not your Kisby Draper.
If he was buried in a Church graveyard then he won't be listed in that site.
I would get his cert then search the papers for his Obituary this may say the funeral director and give the place of burial.
If not then Church Yards.

Hi.

If in Leighton Buzzard he is likely to be buried in Vandyke Road cemetery. The other possible is old Linslade church as the cemetery here is still in use. All Saints in Leighton Buzzard had stopped New burials by the and only allowed a few in old family plots.

I seem to recall that Kisby is buried at Vandyke Road cemetery in Leighton Buzzard there is however no marked grave or head stone.
