Thank you Heather and brevitas for your replies.

I have a newspaper announcement of Frances's death in which it says she was a member of the Wesleyan Connextion for 32 years. I haven't a clue what that was, but obviously something to do with the church. Would there be a clue there as to where she may have been buried?
When her husband died he left a will, so I would presume there may have been money to have a decent burial and headstone.
They were from Wrexham where he had a business.

I have just downloaded a record from The National Archives for Charles Frederick Cooper born 1899.

It is his service record from the Royal Navy.

Unfortunately he is not my man, so if he may belong to you, please let me know and I'll be willing to let you have the copy.

Hi Barnaby.

Wow what a wonderful resource, thank you for all the time and effort you have put in to make it possible for us to use.

However I am at a complete loss as I have no idea when my man joined, but have just got his death cert today, so have some clues.
Frederick Charles Cooper died in 1914 of TB age 33 and occupation given was formerly a Police Constable ( Metropolitan)
He had married in 1909,age 28, where he states on his marriage cert he is a Police Constable.
From these clues I wonder if you could point me in the right direction as to where I should start my search.

Many thanks in anticipation
Cheers
