Memorial Inscriptions
« on: Monday 19 September 05 19:39 BST (UK) »
Dear Members
     I have for a number of years been trying to find the grave of my grandmother Dorothy Goodridge (nee Hickman), I have eventually found where she is buried but all the headstones on this part of the cemetery have been cleared.
   As a long shot I was wondering whether any research had been done in the past on memorial inscriptions and wondered if you would know the whereabouts of such information. Any information gratefully received


Dorothy Goodridge
Grave Reference 22940, Jeffcott Road Cemetery, Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England.

Regards   Mike

Hi Mike,

I found this site earlier today, it may be of interest when looking for where family have been buried on the search page, it has all countries and counties within uk, not all on-line yet, but It could help in future.  www.interment.net
