St. Michael's Cemetery East Ardsley
« on: Sunday 12 May 19 16:05 BST (UK) »
our great grandparents (Joseph Hunter died 1902) and Louisa Richardson Scholey Hunter (died 1933) are buried in this cemetery.

Is anyone familiar with this cemetery to advise if headstones exist for their gravesites?  We are planning to visit it this coming September.

Thank you.

There's a photo and transcription in the Gallery on the Yorkshire Indexers site, which they have described as Section A, D55/56.

You need a subscription to view the gallery (plus a multitude of transcriptions etc), but compared to what some other FH sites charge it's very reasonable.

Hi Constanza

Sorry for this late contribution, I have only just seen this.  I am the process of uploaded the photos of St Michael East Ardsley to Yorkshire Indexers.  The Hunter plot you are looking for is a double kerb grave at the rear of the church.  Follow the path from the gate left, round to the rear, past the cremation area, past another 6 or so graves, and you will find it next to the path on your left. Please pm me if you want any more info/copies of photos.

There are 5 other Hunter memorials uploaded to Yorkshire Indexers so far.  If you create a log in on the site you should be able to see and search the photo Gallery. 

The numbering system I have used is per the Morley FHG MI's which follow the church's own plan, according to the vicar.
