Cemeteries -Essex
« on: Friday 17 June 05 01:12 BST (UK) »
Hello!
I hope I'm posting this in the correct location.

Does anyone know what cemetery someone would be buried in if they died:

"St. Margaret of Antioch, Bowers Gifford, July 13, 1929"

I'm trying to figure out if this entry in the NBI is my ancestor Mary Ann Moore. I'd order the record but as you can imagine there are MANY Mary Ann Moores. This one seems to fit though.

Anyway, many thanks for any clues!

There is a photograph of the church at
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/i.rose/bowersgifford.htm
but sometimes the funeral service is held at a church but the burial (or cremation) takes place elsewhere e.g in a municipal cemetery.
I can't guarantee that the following are the ones you need but they may be worth a try:
Basildon & District Crematorium
Church Road Bowers Gifford
Pitsea Essex SS13 2HG
Tel: (01268 584411)
Pitsea Cemetery
London Road
Pitsea Essex SS13 2DX
Tel: (01268 552132)

I hope this helps
