Another one to conside could be Frogmore church which has burials for this date. It is situated on Watling Street, not far from Harper Lane which leads to Shenley. I live 5 mins away and would gladly look for you if you can tell me a surname.

Does anyone have access to St Peter's London Colney Burial register for Jan 1951.
Thank you

Had a quick visit to St Peters church today. I met the gardener who helped me look for the grave. Unfortunately we were unable to locate it and he did not recognise the name. That is not to say she is not there as there are lots of graves and time was limited. I have passed my phone number onto the gardener who will speak to the vicar and if he comes up with anything will ring me. There is no listing of graves though. Will still try to get to Radlett soon but I am informed that the graves there are not in good order.

Thanks Lifes too short for all your help. Which Church is St Peter's? Sorry don't know the area

and have try so many places now I need to keep them all written down.

Anne may not have a stone though, but hopefully I could find her in the register of the places I am trying. I have written to some place and enclosed a SAE but some don't answer  :'(

Thanks again

St Peters church is in London Colney which is opposite Shenley where you would have thought your relative was buried. Prior to the M25 being build in between the villages are about 2/3 minutes apart by car. Not knowing the background of your relative I assume I am right in saying nobody still alive has any clues to her resting place. How frustrating !!!!

Many Thanks again. Yes all long gone. I just need to find her last resting place, so she is not forgotten, if you know what I mean.
