Hi pin3appl385

Welcome to Rootschat  ;D

As you have their exact dates of death and last addresses from the death certs, have you tried the cemeteries department here

Hi pin3appl385 .

Welcome to Rootschat.  :)

I have looked though the indexes for the main 4 cemeteries in Northampton and can not
see any entries for the names you seek.

If they were buried in the Town churches St. Lawrence, St. Sepulchre's or St. Paul's would be
asking someone to start for the couple living in Leslie St.

The other Church for Wilmer Wright could be noted at St.James.

Sorry I could not help more.

Perhaps they were cremated?

If they were not originally from Northampton perhaps they were buried 'back home'

I wouldn't have thought the Record Office would have checked the Parish Records would they.
