Looking for a grave
« on: Friday 24 May 13 10:33 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am trying to find exactly where a relative is buried, I know they are buried in the church grounds of St Mary's Bagillt, the only problem is, it is in an unmarked grave, My grandmother took there once, from what I do remember It is somewhere to the left of the church. Is there any way of finding out where he may be buried, I know there are quite a few of my family members buried in this churchyard. The person I am looking for is the first husband of my greatgrandmother.

His name was John Gordon. I know he is buried in a different part of the churchyard to his wife. She is buried with her 2nd husband.

He is showing as married to a Sarah in Census entries yet the 1861 marriage shows he married a Mary Hughes?

Perhaps I'm getting confused by the Tree I'm looking at on Ancestry!

His children were born in Conway. But going back to my original enquiry is there any way of finding out where he is actually buried.
