Hope someone can assist us ...
 
Kind regards

Hi Ann,

I live in Leeds, there is no Leeds Family History Society but the Leeds Central Library has many Archives and I am happy to see if they have what you need.
 

Can I  just clarify what you are after?  Are the second 2 deaths both in 1853?  Sorry I am being a bit gormless. ::)

Best wishes,

Elin

Hello from NZ down under. I wonder if anyone could look up the burial index in the Leeds Library/archives for a John Dawson and Ann (e) (ie) Dawson.  I would like to confirm if they were buried at St Stephens church yard in Kirkstall.  Their deaths were D 09.04.1867 UK &John), D 17.04.1868 UK (Ann)
cheers

thanks wildgoose, I am trying to follow a lead from a c1918 photo of a Dawson headstone at St Stephens I think I will have to deal direct with them. They have been helpful in the past.  They have a data base which some kind person put together.  It just takes longer to do it that way, but they folks at St Stephens are really great and accommodating.
