Hi. Does anyone have access to the Rosary or Earlham burial records in Norwich. I am seeking any info concerning one CHRISTOPHER BAKER, Born 1839, Died Dec Qtr 1906. Don't know any precise date of burial or which cemetery.
Any help would be most appreciated.

A more precise date of death, and address might help you locate the burial entry.  :-\

I'm assuming that you don't have a copy of the death registration  :-\
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

Norfolk Record Office has enlistment records, Index

I don't know if this is your Christopher Baker but an email enquiry wouldn't hurt.

Hi amondg. Incredible. This is the one. Served in the army for many years as a musician.
Now you have given me a precise date I can find out which cemetery he is in.
Thank you so much.
Kind regards.
