Burial records All Saints church West Bromwich

[Magiccat1978]

Firstly I'd like to wish all my fellow roots chatters a HAPPY NEW YEAR 

I was wondering if anyone has access to the above records. I have John Abbiss died 20th March 1879 in the Lunatic Asylum Burntwood.  The nice lady at the Staffordshire County record's office has looked for a burial and can't find one. She said the only other place he could be is All Saints or civil ground because she hasn't got those records on hand. I was hoping that someone may be prepared to check for me. I believe he could be buried at All Saints as he married his second wife Hannah Vaughan there in 1864.

Thanks for reading and all the best for 2017

Are the asylum records available as they may show his place of burial

[Magiccat1978]

Yes they are I am sending for them ( 1 and half pages relating to his stay there) but but the lady at the records office has checked the asylum burials and he's not listed, the family appear to have taken him home for burial. He is not listed in any of the burial records she has access to which only leaves All Saints or a civil burial. I'm betting All Saints as he was married there.

thanks

Hello
The burial is on deceased on line 24th March 1879.
You do need vouchers to see more under the new search system.
(The old one let you see where for free).
At a guess I would say Heath lane Cemetery as All Saints would have been quite full by that date.Plus the info comes from a local council rather than a church.
I can't see a contact number for the Cemetery but

Should be able to point you in the right direction.

Or you could just pay on deceased on line.It's only £1.50 and it's probably the cost of the phone call.

Brilliant thankyou so much for that ciderdrinker.

I have an account with deceased online which I have used a lot for my ancestors from Arbroath but I hadn't used it for a few years and forgot it existed   

I have found the entry and you were correct he is in Heath lane Cemetery, buried with his first wife Jane and someone I've yet to find a family connection to.

thanks again for the help
