Denbighshire Lookup Requests / Re: Wrexham: Ruthin Road Cemetery - DUTTON
« on: Saturday 05 December 15 02:14 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you to everyone for their help. 
I have however found out the following information, so I thought it may be useful to anyone else who is searching for similar records as I have been looking for, in particular the  MI’s for Ruthin Road Cemetery and what has happened to the cemetery.
Wrexham Council do not hold the official burial records for the Ruthin Road Cemetery.  But they do have a ‘Schedule of Graves’ for the cemetery which was provided to the Council many years ago by a ‘historian’ and is dated January 1947.
The former Ruthin Road Cemetery, fell into disuse in the early 20th century and then became derelict, it was only acquired from the Diocese by the Council in the 1950’s and re-landscaped into a Memorial Garden and public open space.
It is believed that many of the memorial stones are placed against the boundary walls of the land, but the majority are illegible.  The land now forms part of Victoria Road Infants & Junior School.
Apparently the MI’s can be viewed at Denbighshire Archives, The Old Gaol, 46 Clwyd Street, Ruthin, LL15 1HP. There website is https://www.denbighshire.gov.uk/en/resident/libraries-and-archives/denbighshire-archives/denbighshire-archives.aspx
Unfortunately it appears that you can only get to see the MI’s by actually going to Denbighshire Archives.
Thank you everyone for your help.
Regards Jeam

Hi William
Thank you very much for the information.  I was thinking that the newspaper report had the name of the road spelt incorrectly.  Obviously this isn't so.

I don't suppose anyone on here has access to the Clwyd FHS Mi's that could do a look up for me.
It would be appreciated if anyone can help on this.

Regards Jean

Thank you Mar and Dawnsh,
Strange that they have his age as 45 but I doubt there will be another George Dutton passing away at the County Building around the same dates. One of the newspaper cuttings states he was 47 and George was born 23 May 1835,

I have taken your advise Dawnsh and have sent an e mail to the cemetery.  Thanks again for your guidance.

Denbighshire Lookup Requests / Wrexham: Ruthin Road Cemetery - DUTTON
« on: Tuesday 01 December 15 13:56 GMT (UK)  »
I was wondering if anyone can do a look up for me both burial records and MI and if possible a photograph of the gravestone if one exists. It would be interesting to see if he was buried alone or with family members.  I know his wife Mary remarried in the 4th q of 1893 the following year of George’s death to a Robert Hughes Registered in Wrexham but that is all I know.
The request is for a Sergeant George (Edward) Dutton I believe from newspaper reports he was buried at this cemetery on the 13 January 1882. He a policeman and was the keeper of the Bridewell Wrexham.
The newspaper article states ‘The funeral took place yesterday (Friday) at 2 p.m., the remains which were interred in Ruthin Road Cemetery, being followed to the grave by a large detachment of the police force. Clubbers, members of the Fire Brigade, and a number of the general public’ and this newspaper the Wrexham Advertiser was dated the 14th January 1882.
George appeared to have dropped the Edward but it would be interesting to find out if it is dropped on his burial records etc.

Gill I was wondering if you have managed to get an answer to your question.  I am a volunteer for LOPC or Lancashire Online Parish Clerks and have been working on these records for near on 4 years. We always transcribe what is actually written in the register.
The website for LOPC is http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/

Thanks Trish.  I would of been wondering what that scroll was. I will have to find sort out a photo.  I like your idea of putting a relative.

Please forget that last part of my message, it does appear to have saved.

I agree with you both, although its the people who contribute who are great. 
But what a great system. 
I joined some time ago but have just struggled through with the occasional help from members of the LOPC who I have been transcribing for. for the past 4 years, so my own tree tends to go on the back burner.
I also think it helps when you can share a problem has someone else may well look at the problem in a different way and hey presto you have got through another brick wall.

Perhaps someone can help with a little problem I seem to have.  I tried to enter my research names etc into my profile but they don't appear to be saved to add to my postings.  Is there something I am missing? Maybe I have to add a photo for it to be accepted. I notice that Trish has a listing at the end of your reply.

Thank you so much to both Crisani and Trish.  You have been a great help and I have been able to add to the family from the information you have found.
I had found young Edward Price who had died in 1848. But all the other information especialy Enoch's sisters and Elizabeths marriage had passed me by probably because not finding that 1841 Census. 
I doubt that there would be another Theodosia marrying a John Hughes and goodness knows why I didn't find that. 
I had searched and searched for them and this is really what prompted my to put my questions to the forum.  It was my first entry so I am thrilled that someone could help me.
I also have thought that perhaps Alice had just taken the name of Price and possibly Robinson.
Thank you once again. Jean
