Leicestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Can anyone check CD ROMS of Leicester/Rutland stray marriages, please?
« on: Friday 19 June 15 01:57 BST (UK)  »
I have some Knapps as my ancestors, from the Stathern/Eaton/Eastwell area. I also have them travelling to Kibworth to either marry or act as witnesses at other Knapps' marriages. This was in the 1820s to 1870s, so it was quite a distance on foot, horseback or by train if they had the money. However, I have checked both the churchyard and cemetery at Kibworth (Beauchamp I think) and there are none at all, or least none in marked graves that I could see.

Nottinghamshire / Re: REDHILL CEMETERY, Arnold, Nottingham

I went to Carlton and Redhill a couple of weeks ago (didn't bother with Gedling). Despite what the council website says there is no freely available map of either cemetery. It was a week day and there happened to be council staff working at each one who helped me with their own working maps, and I have to say Redhill was a lot simpler to work out than Carlton. Also, if you go to Wilford Hill, go in the office and ask for what you are looking for and the ladies on the desk will be only too happy to help as they have record books there going back years.

I stumbled across this link the other day, for Gedling Borough Council cemeteries at Redhill, Gedling and Carlton http://tinyurl.com/ozsoceu. With it I found my great great grandparents' (and that of another relative) grave at Redhill, complete with memorial to some of their children, and the (unfortunately unmarked) grave of another set of great great grandparents at Carlton.
