Good evening,

I've recently found the grave of my grandparents in Rake Lane Cemetery in Wallasey, Wirral. and through roots and members discovered that my family have been in the same area for a number of previous generations I just wondered if there is any way to confirm if my great grandparents are also at the same cemetery? I know they are not at the same grave.

They are:
Thomas Smith Cole b.1863 at Liscard Cheshire England - d.1945
Ann H Harrison (Cole) b.1863 at Saughall Massie Cheshire - d. unknown

Grateful of any help or input

Alan
