Huddersfield Newspaper Lookup
« on: Saturday 18 January 25 14:14 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find a piece of family history. It concerns the burial place of one WILLIAM BARKER, Died February 15, 2005, District of Huddersfield, aged 83. Cannot find in any Newspapers online because the dates for 2005 are not available. The Huddersfield Council covering their cemeteries cannot help as I do not know which cemetery for them to do a lookup. However if there is anyone out there who will be visiting the library for research is it possible they could look in the main newspaper for the week Feb 15-21 for any death notification that may include burial details.
Any help would be most welcome. William and his wife who died in 1988 lived in Miry Lane, Holmfirth.
Thank you.

As you have the date of death have you checked the Crematorium

Hi Rosie. I have checked the Crematorium Book of Remembrance and there is nothing there.

Maybe no one has entered his name in it.   I know where my family were cremated they were not entered automatically but if family had wanted them there
