Which cemetery in Wooler?
« on: Wednesday 08 November 23 21:52 GMT (UK) »
I have a newspaper article about the funeral and interment of someone at "Wooler Churchyard". However I'm not sure whether this refers to the main churchyard at St Mary's itself, or the extension of it on Burnhouse Road. The burial was in early 1939.

I took a look on the Findagrave site and there only appears to be a couple of graves in St Mary's itself showing dates past the 1920s, so would it be safe to say Burnhouse Road?

These 2 websites were quoted in earlier Rootschat posts about Wooler gravestones. They may be some help to you. I think the extension site is your best bet. Most of the gravestones at St Mary’s are much older.
Good luck!
