Oh thank you very much Malky - the book must have been taken to reply to my email I sent.

I have received a reply:
according to our records his cremated remains were dispersed within the Gardens of Rest at Kaimhill Crematorium .  Sorry I can find no trace of a plaque. 

Thank you everyone for your assistance in this.
Appreciate all your help - some have gone above & beyond  - Malky  ;D

"according to our records his cremated remains were dispersed within the Gardens of Rest at Kaimhill Crematorium"

That is an interesting statement. If it were me, I would try and trace what happened to his wife and where she died.

I do agree with the following "Sorry I can find no trace of a plaque."

Regards

Malky

HI Malky
I will pass this on to the person who was originally researching this - I was doing the search on their behalf as they were going away for a few weeks.

Thanks for your help

Hi Malky and Cathy,
API's ashes were scattered in two places, Kaimhill crematorium and also at the Bridge of Don. API's wife Edyth was cremated at Hollinwood crematorium in Oldham lancs in the mid 60s. As far my memory goes there was no plaque or headstone.
