Burial in Colchester please
« on: Monday 07 July 14 18:52 BST (UK) »
Hi

I'm looking for the burials of David Foster who died in 1876 and his wife, Mary Ann Foster, who died in 1905 - both in Colchester.  If possible, I would like to find the cemetery and plots numbers please if anyone can help with this.

Many thanks

Lindsey

03.05.1876, St Giles, Colchester for David. The church was made redundant in 1956 and is now a masonic hall. I wouldn't be surprised that by 1876 the graveyard would be full and David may be buried in Colchester Cemetary.

Hi Mark

So sorry for the delay in replying had to leave computer.  Thank you very much for the information re David.  David was born in 1805 and Mary in 1820.
