Good to see the additional details, jonw65.

It is all pretty consistent the info re Plot 3622/B and the Huxtable family burials.

The only problem is....we've lost the plot

Thank you both for your help and information.  I have spent all week looking at the plan of the graveyard but to no avail.     Got quite hopeful at row 4 and five plots up which is on the crease.  But the plan of section B on here confirms as 8622 not 3622.

Really frustrating for you

Your posts have enabled me to trace the burial places of three of my relations.  Thank you so much Monica.

Only thing is I'm stuck with making sense of the burial of my 3+great grandmother at Battersea Rise in 1879.  I assume Uncon is 'unconsecrated'.

Secondly, her Plot No. in section A (or is it F, being the printed letter at the top of the page?) seems to be written in pencil.  I think it says 1014 (see attached).  But there are three sections A and I have scoured the plan images to no avail.
Might you have any insights or tips to help in my search?

Many thanks for any suggestions you can offer.

Hi Josh

I am glad that the lair plans have helped you.

Where did you get the details on Elizabeth? Was it from here https://enable.imagestor.co.uk/search/#

If you did get it from them, if you I would give them a call call and ask for their advice as to what they think the burial register entry shows. Writing is so faint isn't it. Could be just down to a poor image.

Section A1 is in the oldest part of the cemetery. Very few stones remaining in that section. It is also quite a big section. If you have a look at the photo below, A1 in the overgrown section in the back of the photo, across the path. The front of the photo is section B and stops at the path.

Thank you Monica, I did get the detail from Enable and shall follow up as you suggest.
Very grateful for all you've put on here.

Hello again Monica,
Thank you for your suggestion, as they came back to me very quickly:

'I have checked the burial register and the information that is illegible has been written in green ink. The grave number is 8957, it is an earth grave and the row is 1014. A Uncon means it is an A class grave in un-consecrated grounds.'

I hope to now find it on the plans you so kindly posted.
