Hi Ian,

Try Cardiff City Council on 02920623294.This is their Bereavement Service.I know they have computerised their records so they should be able to help.I expect your G,Grandparents were buried in Cathays Cemetery but with a bit of luck they should be able to tell you.

I did a similar check last year and found them very helpful.
