Hello,
Gloucestershire is very far a way for me. Would you be able to do look ups for me?
I need help in finding a burial for Jame Gwynn who died on 21 Oct 1942 at The Infirmary Eastington, Gloucestershire, Aged 18 years old. His home address was 6 Woodcock Lane, Gloucestershire. His Occupation: General Labourer..
I have had help from a local Priest from the area and he has suggested St. Cyr's churchyard, in which case the details of the person, but not necessarily of the grave will be recorded in the Church burial registers.
There is also the possibility that a burial could have taken place at St. Michael and All Angels, Eastington or possibly at a non-conformist Church, the only one of which had a burial ground in Stonehouse was the Congregational Church in the High Street (now demolished).
I phoned Gloucester City Council for Gloucestershire burials & Cremations and they checked Tredworth Road Cemetery & Coney Hill Cemetery - James Gwynn not found.
They suggested I should call Gloucestershire Family History Society for help.
I spoke to a lovely lady from their and she said that because he died in Eastington and lived nr Stonehouse, I should try the churches for Stroud. As there are no cemeteries covering his area.
Just to be able to locate his grave would give great relief to my aunt.
If you could help with this research you would be making a little old lady very happy.
If I am able to help you in anyway. Please let me know. I live in Dagenham, Essex. I often go to Newham, Havering & Barking & Dagenham Archives. If I can assist you in these areas please let me know.
Thank you for your time.
Angie
