I found the death of Margaret W Evans (Lloyd) died June 1931 at Caerau Road, Maesteg, where would I look for a burial place.

Many thanks

Hi ugo,

This is the link for all cemeteries in Glamorgan.  Maesteg would come under Bridgend I think...

Hello ugo  :)

As you know the date of death and address, you could try to get hold of a newspaper obituary. Maesteg library have a newspaper archive and may be able to provide a copy for a small fee.

I recently found an obituary for my Great Grandmother which confirmed my suspicions about her burial place, so it is worth a shot.

Best Wishes
Morgan

Thank you Morgan and Romilly for your help.

I wish I could pop in to Maesteg Library that would solve a few questions I have, I live in in Essex its a long way.

Kind regards Joan

Best option for Maesteg newspapers is reference Library in Y Llynfi (Maesteg)

Y Llynfi
Maesteg Sports Centre

Old Forge Site

Nant-y-Crynwyd

Maesteg

CF34 9EB

Tel:  (01656) 754859
Fax:  (01656) 815055
Email: yllynfilibATbridgend.gov.uk
 

They have microfilm copies of newspapers such as Glamorgan Advertiser (where I have found a number of Maesteg obits)

Other good option is
