Shoreditch/Hoxton Burial

[June Terrington]

Hi everyone

I'm looking for a possible burial for a Walter Vincent Russell born 1893 Poplar and died 1954 in St Leonards Hospital Shoreditch.

Hi JUne

Finding burials in and around London is particularly tricky because of the number of possibilities.

Shoreditch comes under the London Borough of Hackney and there's a list of cemeteries here

Without an exact date of death and last known address which might narrow down the choice, you don't have an easy job ahead of you. Very few London burials are online so you'll need to contact the cemeteries directly, bearing in mind some charge for look-ups.

There is a Walter Russell buried 29/1/1954 at Sutton Cemetery (London borough of Sutton)
Could be him? If you register on this site you can see (at a charge) the burial register & grave details.

That burial at Sutton might be the Walter Russell aged 70 whose death was registered in Mar Qtr 1954 in Surrey Mid Eastern (vol 5g p 284 - covers Sutton).
