Title: Cardington burial records
Post by: gertrudepilley on Tuesday 23 March 21 19:55 GMT (UK)

Hello,
I am trying to find a burial record for Frances Fowler who died in Cardington between 1812 (birth of daughter) and 1816 (her husband remarries).  I have checked Find My Past and Ancestry - but there are no burial records for Cardington
Many thanks
Jenny

 Many, many thanks John.  That information is brilliant.  Do you have access to marriages in Cardington by any chance ?   After Frances Fowler died, her widower, Richard Fowler, remarried a lady called Elizabeth. If this happened in Cardington, it would have been between the death of Frances in 1817 and the birth of a son, James, in 1819 - by which time the family had moved to Great Wilbraham.   Again, many thanks for your help.
Very gratefully,
Jenny

Hi John,
Just to say I have found the burial on Find My Past !  I also think I have found the remarriage record for Richard on there as well.
Many thanks
Jenny
