Burial look up request
« on: Monday 17 March 14 14:18 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I am trying to find out where my g/grandfather was buried.  His name was Henry Clarke.  He died on 31st May 1935 at 'the dock' (I presume he was working when he died  :( ).  His address at the time of death was 29 Lincoln Lane, Boston.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sue

Hi Sue

Have you tried asking the cemeteries office at Boston Council?

Hi Dawn

I filled in their form about 10 days ago but haven't had any reply.  Maybe it takes a bit longer.

Unfortunately, I live in Surrey so it would be a long journey for me to go to the office in person.

Thanks for the reply

Sue

If you get the chance, give them a telephone call as you're based in England.

Online forms have a habit of getting lost in the system.

The worst they can tell you is that they can't help unless you put the request in writing.
