Sorry, couldn't find it.
The three graveyards you mentioned by private message.
One is the old churchyard, full by around 1900.
The second a council cemetary approx 1900-1980. This is around  a couple of  acres in size. Probably given enough time, their grave could be found, but it would be a long search. Not helped by the fact that the council are toppling a lot of the gravestones on health and safety grounds.
The third cemetary is the new out of town one.

Thanks for trying anyway..
