Family History Beginners Board / Stafford burials
« on: Sunday 15 March 20 11:02 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I understand that there are two main cemeteries in Stafford. For many years the one on Eccleshall Road was the main cemetery, but I believe that a new cemetery was opened on Tixall Road in 1964.
Would anyone know if Eccleshall Road burials ceased at that point?
In other words, if a burial took place after 1964, could it have been in either cemetery?
Mike

His parents were James and Mary, but they never left the UK. Thomas’s brother Alf returned from Canada in 1914 and was killed in the war in 1915.

Many thanks for your help Monica. I’m related to the Austin side. Charles Austin was my father’s great uncle, whilst his ‘wife’ Elsie was sister to my father’s mother.

He was a sapper in the Royal Engineers.

Yes, that’s absolutely correct. Charles Austin was my great, great uncle. It turned out that Charles was never actually married, so I suspect that his wife never actually divorced Harold.

Apparently so. The marriage did not last long and the family story was that he was knocked off his bicycle and killed, but I've no idea when.
