Hi Chrissie
It might be better to contact the PCC secretary rather than the priest, clergy tend to be very busy, I know ours is  :)

Hi Chrissie,
Tyne and Wear Archives have a user guide for Local Authority Cemeteries & Crematoria
http://www.tyneandweararchives.org.uk/userguides/

They have a research service http://www.tyneandweararchives.org.uk/research.htm which costs £25 per hour including VAT.
