Title: Burial certified under burials law, what does it mean?
Post by: Alders on Friday 17 August 18 18:31 BST (UK)

Hello,
I've come across a burial for a 14 year girl called Louisa Parkin  31/10/1896 & in the side is this remark:-
Burial certified under burials law amendt act 1880, by John Wilson 175 Woodhouse st.
Any clue as to what this  means?
