1940s POWELL deaths in Norwich

[Yegvard]

Hi,

In 1939 Anthony Powell and his wife Annie (or Anne) nee THOMAS were living in Chapel Alley, Queens Road, Norwich.  Anthony died in the summer of 1940 (aged 80) and Annie in the second quarter of 1944 (aged 85).  They were both in the circus as Equestrians, often working internationally and possibly with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show.  I'm currently not aware they had any family in Norwich, but work in progress.

I don't know Norwich at all.  Where, please, is the most likely place they would have been buried?  Also, did the local newspapers carry any announcements?

Described as "La Belle Duchess" there are 4 photographs here https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=311573.0

The first one could now be Annie whilst "Belle 2-4" is probably her daughter.

Kind regards

Mike

Try Earlham Cemetery

There is a web page Friends of Earlham Cemetery perhaps they could help.

Deceased online have a burial register summary for an Anthony Powell buried 4th September 1940 Norfolk.
Not sure if he is your Anthony and you would need credits to view details.
