Cheshire / St Mary's Churchyard, Birkenhead - Reburial Records
« on: Thursday 25 January 18 14:33 GMT (UK)  »
Hi , Can any one help?.
There was a family ancestor buried in St Mary's Churchyard, Birkenhead in 1916. In, approximately, 1957 the churchyard was sold to Cammell Lairds, Shipbuilders for the building of a dry dock. The remains (some 5,500 people, were reinterred in Landican Cemetery. Wirral Archives confirm the the person concerned, Hilda Humphreys (age 1) was indeed reinterred at Landican. At a visit to Landican today they say they have no record of the person as they only have a record of the first person buried in each grave. I think that there must be a record of who is buried where, can anyone point me in the right direction to look

Can anyone please help!! As a newbie I'm struggling to locate a birth registration for my fathers younger brother. The family have always appeared to have lived in Birkenhead.  In Ancestry it is recorded on his death record as 5/8/1929 but when I look for the birth record ten years either side of this date it is not evident. I suspect that a name change has taken place for whatever reason but I am at a loss to know where to look to locate his true surname if it has changed. I have changed the spelling of both surname and christian name and searched with just one or the other but all to no avail. Many thanks!.
