I have finally got my hands on a map of the cemetry now, if you still want some pix taken drop me a line with the plot numbers and as soon as I can get up there I will take some for you.

I've been to the graveyard this morning but there is no stone there. I have taken some pictures of the surrounding area but by the looks of the open spaces around it there are a number of public graves there so he is possibly in one of those. If you send me your email addy I pass on the pictures I did take if you would like them.

Hello, I am completely new to this but have been researching my family history now for a number of years and this is the first time I am asking for some help!  You all seem very helpful.

My grandfather is buried in the Hull Northern Cemetery and the details I have found are as follows:
BENNETT, ALFRED GEORGE WALTER, A G W    Stoker 2nd Class   P/KX 103943   Royal Navy   01/09/1940   
Location: Compt. 202. Grave 5..

I would be grateful if someone on their next visit to the cemetery could take me some pictures of the grave as I am living in Greece, doing most of my research from here.

Thanking you in advance

Hello,
I`m wondering if anyone can help with photographs of the following two Durham Light Infantry Headstones/Memorial Screen

The first is a Headstone photograph of
4452463 PTE RONALD TATE who died on the 2nd September 1945 he was aged 23.His grave can be found at Compt. 109. Grave 18. It is a standard CWGC white headstone and not a family memorial stone if it helps?

The second is a commemoration on the Screen Wall within the cemetery it refers to
14219902 PTE HARRY TREVOR MATHER who died on the 30th February 1944
he was just 19.Harry is actually buried in Hull General Cemetery but according to the CWGC this grave was not maintainable.If anyone knows where his original grave is then an additional photograph would be greatly appreciated.

All photographs are added to my website where relatives can download them free of charge the ones I have todate can be found at

The red links are photographs already online.
Thanks for looking
Best Wishes

Jim

Can i please get a copy of your map of Northern Cemetery? My Grandad is here and I am trying to locate his grave as my Dad recently passed and would like to scatter some of his ashes with his dad.

Thank you

Good morning Joyner1
Did you get a photo of your ancestor's grave? I live near this cemetery and would be happy to look if you didn't get one last time.
