Find your Deceased - Rippleside Cemetery - Website problem??
« on: Monday 18 January 16 22:40 GMT (UK) »
I've been unable to access the Barking and Dagenham Council's website to search for burials for over a fortnight now. I know it's been 'fragile' at times in the past - and wondered if it had moved or heaven forbid - been taken down.

Anyone else having the same problem? I've used Firefox, Chrome and the new MS browser - all are saying no response from server........

Thanks in advance for any advice
Sue

I could get into the website absolutely no problem but could not see a facility to enable you to search cemetery records.

After googling I found the following:

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GScid=1987143


Shows 600 burials for Rippleside Cemetery.

Thanks for the reply Annette - sorry I guess I could have explained better - the web address to access the incredibly useful "Find Your Deceased" site has been - for many years -

http://cemweb.barking-dagenham.gov.uk/servlet/Telesearch

This allowed you to access Rippleside, Eastbrookend and Chadwell Heath records - including seeing who else was buried in the same grave. I have often found it didn't like being accessed in Firefox - whilst Chrome usually worked OK but now it's not working at all apparently

I know the Council itself has changed it's web address to http://www.lbbd.gov.uk/ but the old site for the Cemetery Records was certainly still working last month - albeit slowly at times.

I know from previous posts that a few others on here were fairly regular users - hence wondering if anyone knew what was going on

Cheers
Sue

An old thread I know, but in case you haven't already found it, and to help others looking for this as I was, the Barking and Dagenham cemetery search now seems to be at https://cemeteries.lbbd.gov.uk/Telesearch/?loggedin=true
