Died in Gosforth.
« on: Thursday 15 December 22 21:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi folk's,my Gt Gt Grandparents William Henry Round D1913 and Margaret D1917 lived in station road
Gosforth at the time of their death's they were Methodists so could anyone take an educated guess
where they were likely to be buried and where the records could be found?
Regard's Steve.

I think possibly St Andrew's Cemetery Jesmond or Hollywood Cemetery try first.

If not there then try All Saints then Jesmond Old Cemetery.  Unfortunately, Jesmond has no plots in the register.
St Nicholas Church is nearby but I am not sure if Methodists would be buried there or not.
Newcastle local studies in Newcastle City library 6th floor has the burials and newspapers on microfilm.  There is a lift or stairs.  They also have a memorials inscriptions book for St Andrew's Cemetery.  Look at this before you do anything as you might be able to see at a glance if there was a memorial
FamilySearch used to have the burials online for St Andrew's but I think these are locked and you have to go to a centre.
Another way to do it is to check all the Evening Chronicle notices for the quarter they died, in case there might have been a notice placed which records burial place.  It might be a long trawl but you might find them before getting through 3 months of papers.  Both spouses are likely to be in same burial place.

Thank's Carol for the correcti year and great  the info Boo I would assume Margaret is buried in the
same place they left their eldest who was married in Chester le street and took their other son Lorenzo
Denison Round and adopted daughter to Gosforth I can't trace her after the 1911 Census but Lorenzo who
was a music teacher lived at the address till his death in the early sixties.

Without something to confirm it I would refrain from assumptions about her being buried in the same place.

I find that assumptions can cloud the issue and prefer to rely on records to give me clues, then I need the records to confirm it. (Mrs Belt n Braces, me!)

Though its very possible they are buried in the same place, IF after William died she went to live with one of their offspring she 'may' have been buried near to where they lived.

I'll attempt to find a death notice for her, but that will have to wait till tomorrow. If you have a date of death for her that would narrow down the time it will take to search.

If you have the opportunity to go to Newcastle then Tyne and Wear Archives will have the Parish Registers for Gosforth ( I believe that St Nicholas is the parish church) and you can check those for the burial record for William Henry.

That's brilliant Boo that you found the notice for William!    St Nicholas is the Parish Church and the entry will be at Tyne and Wear Archives as you say.

I live about 5 mins away from St Nicholas Church and have walked around the grave yard a few times. It's very large and the stones are mostly very old and in various states of legibility.
