Burial record for Danygraig Cemetery *COMPLETED*
« on: Monday 18 April 11 00:08 BST (UK) »
Hi
Would anyone be able to help with burial records for Danycraig Cemetery? My great grandparents are buried there. His name is William Luke Woodward Jones (not sure if all middle names will be there) and her name is Josephine Marie Jones nee Watts. Where would be the place l would look up these sorts of records?
I will be coming to Wales in 2012 and would like to go and see where they are buried.
Thanks for your help

Hi Carolew
thank you for the welcome.
I am unable to find a death record for William , but Josephine died in the middle of 1965 in Swansea aged 87. My mother seems to remember them being buried together.
thanks
Angie

I've rung the cemetery supervisor and left a message - he's usually very good at getting back to me so I'll let you know as soon as he does.


By the way, if it's the Swansea cemetery you mean then it's Danygraig with a "g"  ;)

Go to Post 6, one grave over and 6 graves up.

Also in the grave are their children Anthony, Olive, Doris and Edgar.

I have photos for you so if you PM me with your e-mail address I'll send them straight on to you.
