Hi, I run my own grave tending company in the west midlands, and I am in Dudley Cemetery once a week I think the section that you are looking at is section F and most of the stones have been removed send me the details and I will take a look.

always pays to read the thread!!! Section F this is the section where most of the stones have been removed and this used to be the papuers section of the cemetery. Havent been there yet but a few years ago I had a request for another stone in this section this is how I know most have been removed but what the cemetery master did for me was spray the ground with a yellow circle so I could show my customer.

The research on this family was done as a present for friends.  I've contacted them today & they are thinking of going to Dudley to check out the area so will check out the Cemetery for themselves and are quite prepared for there not being a headstone.

Thanks very much for your help - Binkie
