London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / West Ham Death - Catholic burial
« on: Saturday 24 February 07 10:42 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I am trying to locate the grave of a Franciscan catholic whose death is recorded at West Ham in 1909. At that time i believe he may have been living in Forest Gate. Where are the most likely places he would have been buried?

Thanks in anticipation

The Lighter Side / BBC2/Restoration of Gorton Monastery
« on: Tuesday 07 March 06 22:01 GMT (UK)  »
Hi folks i've recently joined this site as i've been researching a remarkable group of franciscan friars who built a church and friary in Gorton, Manchester, which achieved World Monument Fund status a few years ago along with the Taj Mahal, Valley of the Kings, Pompei etc. They obviously have no direct descendents (i hope!) because of their celibacy vows. However through this site i've been able to pick up some very, very good links to their families today. Arranroots was very welcoming and i mentioned a BBC2 programme @ 7.30 on the 8th March "Passion for Churches" which for half an hour documents our struggle with red tape and funding to save and restore this magnificent building. Arranroots assures me that Rootschatters are fanatical about anything historical and suggested i post to this thread. Sorry its short notice but hope you can watch.

also you can find us at http://www.themonastery.co.uk


best wishes and thanks for your time
