there are two main cemeteries in Birkenhead they are flaybrick which was closed to burials a few years ago unless you have a plot. The other main one is Landican hope this is helpful.

Thanks Jan;

Thanks Lubbie;
that does help, I am trying to look for a name list of those buried with in the church yds, Many town and village web sites now contain this kind of info.
I have found this very helpful in the past to identifie my relations.
Birkenhead is way to far for me to travel.

Thanks again.

Hello Tony
Do you have a death year for Claude Wright?Council burials can be looked up but only if you know the year.

Hi Celia;
Sorry I can only guess, around 1960s. He moved from Caston , Norfolk at a young age, working in various hotels, and later I am told owned his own place, last address was Birkenhead, Cheshire.
His parents were Horace Fincham and Violet Wright, hence Cluade Wright. his wife was Edith.

Not a lot to go on I know, have been searching for some yrs now.

thank you for your interest...

Yes i agree with you there, the volunteers do a wonderful job. I do Cemetery look ups myself. only for council cems though.I could do some Church yard ones but not  sure for birkenhead. Unless you can spend a couple of hours a week.At a reference library going through the death G.R.O's.It will take you another few years to find where he MIGHT be buried  He might have moved on from birkenhead and died elswhere. so as said a death certificate is needed, another thing to remember is that a lot of churchyards were full by the 60's so unless he had a family grave to be buried in.He could be in a council one. when you find a death get back to me and i will do a look up for you. Where did you get his last address from.That is something i can look up if he was still in B/Head.
