Hi, I am looking for the grave of Alma Gunter, first wife of my late father. Also wish to know who is in a grave at Section 15C No.204 with d.o.b and d.o.d. if possible please, all at Rake Lane Cemetery, Liscard, Wirral. Thank You.

Hi,

Welcome to RootsChat 

You've probably seen this website already, but just in case...

http://www.wallaseycemetery.co.uk/the%20Friends.htm

As you have such detailed information of the grave number maybe they could look and see who's there


Is GUNTER Alma's maiden name or her married name? I ask because I can't find a death for her

Regards,
Daisy

Thank you for the welcome and reply 

Gunter is the surname I remember my father telling me.

Thanks for the link... I had`nt seen it.

Hi,
 
I still can't find a death for an Alma GUNTER but I can see two births and marriages,


Births

Alma GUNTER    Dec Q 1919    Birkenhead    8a  1025
mmn:  DALEY

Alma B J GUNTER    Dec Q 1927    Bradfield    2c  488
mmn: BAILEY


Marriages   

Alma GUNTER     Mar Q 1946    Wallasey    8a  1381
Spouse:    MATTHEWS


Alma B J GUNTER    Sep Q 1952    Wokingham    6a  565
Spouse:  SMITH


From the area we have been looking at I would think that the first one could be the Alma GUNTER that you are looking for. If so this looks like her death,

Alma MATTHEWS    Mar 1958    Wallasey    10a  794   
Age:  38


If this is the right lady then maybe local newspapers would have an obituary for her? If this is the right DOD then contacting Wirral about the Wallasey News, 1899-1985 might help.
