Woleston Workhouse Burial

[sivartd]

My GGG dad died in 1909 at Woleston Workhouse, where would the workhouse bury a person if they hadn't any family to do this for them.

Many thanks, Doreen

It is Worleston, and is the Nantwich Workhouse. He would probably have been buried in Nantwich Cemetery, Whitehouse Lane, which opened 1897
