Title: John Morton - Three Towns Burials
Post by: steviepeas on Wednesday 30 September 20 11:53 BST (UK)

Hi, I am looking for a burial record for a John Morton (b 24 June 1855 Clonmel), number 15555 Royal Marine who died at East Stonehouse Naval Hospital on or around 6 November 1877. I am unable to find a resource for burials in the area and would be grateful for any assistance or guidance.

Have you considered emailing the archives?

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to reply, I tried to access the archives at The Box, Plymouth today but was rebuffed as the timed admission ticket for the Box is not an admission ticket for the archives. Very unclear on their site and beware of making a trip unless you know this fact. :( I will try to contact the Devon archives and ask for assistance, good suggestion, thanks
