Hi all, I'm looking for the last resting place of Max Ashton, born ~1930, died 2015. Last heard of in Manchester.
Ex British Army and RNZAF.
Cheers.

Death was registered in the Manchester RD.  How do you know he was buried?  Many more are cremated than buried

Do you have his death cert?  What was his address at the time he died?

Maybe I shouldn't have made an assumption.

Here are all the areas within the Manchester RD

Did he leave a will?  You can check here https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/

Did he have children?  Have you made enquiries with them?

EDIT

His death was registered in the December qtr 2015

Probate site shows he died on Christmas Day 2015 so funeral would be January 2016.

I googled & there is an obit in the Manchester Evening News dated 14.1.2016 but you have to sign up for a 30day free trial to view it on Yumpu??
