I am looking for the burial place of James Binns and his wife Emily. They both died in Halifax west Yorkshire.
James died in 1918 and Emily in 1917.
 Thanks

Neither Emily nor James are buried at St Matthew, Rastrick, so possibly cemetery burials.

Amended:  Oops, sorry, records available on-line only go to 1880

The head gardener at Brighouse cemetery may have a detailed  map and records.

They (Below) should be able to help locate this grave! If like other town cemetery admin's? they should have very detailed maps. Not just the general plan map!

Another way is to work out by the earliest dates (First date grave was dug) on a randam grave stone(s) in the section and if numbered. This will only work on the first body in the grave, buried date in the unmarked & head stone marked graves as buried in rows!! one after another - day after day as each first burial happend by date and  as Dave (Above) says.....as number on gravestones......etc
.....
Dates here only example!
IE ;- if Gertrude Uglymire was buried 12 th June 1865 as first burial in that grave with an headstone number row E number 109 then  Robert Blogg was first buried in this grave on the 18 th of July 1865 with a headstone in E row grave number 119 then E row grave 113 is in between 109 and 119 also E 113  between 12th June 1865 and 18th July 1865-Therefore the first burial in E 113 of this example is between these dates
......

If you can visit or write to Elland Parkwood cemetery admin they should help (informal/off record.)and give you a detailed map of the section and grave free.  (Maybe a £1 copy charge or less of their section map) But if its a admin recorded phone /documented mail/email (Formal Request) query search then there will be a charge (a hefty one)
