Barrow-in Furness, burials
« on: Friday 15 June 18 15:03 BST (UK) »
I am trying to locate the graves of James Rimmer d.1892 and his wife Jane d.1898. They were living at 116 Buccleuch ST Barrow in 1891. Can anyone help please with finding where they are buried?

Many thanks

Any idea if contacting the cemetery itself would be worthwhile to find plot numbers?

Sorry, I have no idea.  It is always worth trying though as you have the burial dates.  :)

Yes contact the cemetery officer, they helped me some years ago to trace family plots

Thank you elzabels and Palladium. I am going to contact the cemetery and the link to gravestonephotos is great. As you say no Rimmers in Barrow but I am playing with other family surnames just to see 😀
