Burial Registers, 'Old' St Andrews Church, Kingsbury?
« on: Thursday 18 May 17 19:22 BST (UK) »

Would anyone on here know... the location of the Burial Registers for 'Old' St Andrews Church, Kingsbury? The time scale that I am looking for is the 1930's:

They should be at the LMA and online at Ancestry under Holy Innocents or Saint Andrew.

There's an explanation in the LMA catalogue for Saint Andrew Kingsbury ref DRO/028

Many Thanks Dawn for the Links, - much appreciated.

I am still trying to definately locate the Burials of my Grandparents, William James and Margaret Wilson in 1934 and 1938.

I've Posted about this on here previously:
http://www.rootschat.com/links/01k4n/

Ancestry has these Burials at St Andrews, Kingsbury.

 However, I have recently been in touch with the Vicar there, who has searched for their graves with no success. I am now wondering if in fact Margaret Wilson, who was Buried on the 3rd February 1934, was Buried in the graveyard of the 'Old' St Andrews, as the 'New' Church wasn't officially opened until October 1934. It would also seem likely that William James Wilson would have been Buried beside her when he was Buried on the 3rd January 1938. There just doesn't seem to be any way of verifying this:-(

Thanks Dawn. Yes, - I'm pretty certain that they must be in the 'Old' Graveyard...

It's a shame that the Burial Records are so incomplete, but I've come across this problem before in different parts of the country, and so St Andrews isn't unique in this respect. It's just particularly frustrating for me, because I've spent so long trying to pin down William James Wilson! (I've never been able to find a Birth for him, or to find him anywhere at all before his Marriage in 1893). A Gravestone with some details on for him would have been a wonderful find! (I think that's why I've persisted in trying to find his burial).
