Very smart!  Still wouldn't pay 75 quid for the picture though... :P ;D

Did anyone notice his name was Atrill in the newspaper article, no wonder we can't find people    ;)


Well done everybody for finding out all the information.

I'm a big fan of Most Haunted and have been watching it for a few years now.  I only came across this thread by accident, and am most impressed by all your detective work.  Fantastic ;)


Back to Emma's original post....when I watch the programme I quite often find myself looking up names of the so-called spirits in the various census, just to see whether they did in fact exist.


I think it must be a Rootschat thing, coz only you lot will understand ;D ;D


I hope this thread continues, and I, for one, will be following it closely.

Well done!

Afternoon all,

Have nothing new to report as of yet - no new from Henry's 2xGt Niece.  Will be sure to let you know if I hear anything.  Maybe I will send her a little reminder in the future if nothing happens, although I don't want to rush her...I know what I'm like at replying to messages!!

Regards, Emma ;)

Bruddy hope so! I'm waiting for a reply from "Jerry" down at the Cemeteries Office that he has located Henry's  grave for us  ;D  Jerry said he'd be back to me the middle of this week....

I'll give him an extra 2 days for New Years and Bank Holiday.....remember those Annie, Bank Holidays !!!!

Yeah, come on Jerry!!  It's mid-week Wednesday!!  ;D

Watched the first of the new series of Most Haunted last night - yet another ghost with a tragic demise...but didn't get to me in quite the same way!! (And if you think I'm looking for a James or John Jones in Wales, you've got another thing coming!!)

For me, it's Henry Attreal all the way (no matter how you spell it!!)  :D

Regards, Emma ;)

Jerry's called  :D

Henry Attreall - that's the spelling they have for him ::) was buried on 15th August 1910 in Area K Row 6 Grave Number 1.

with no Memorial  :(

No one is buried with him and no one owns the rights to the grave ???
