Hi Jean, from what I have read, the Cholera and Smallpox victims were buried in mass graves in Netherton? Apparently somewhere near Netherton Hall? No records were kept. I presume that is why some of us have such difficulty finding any burials in that time frame. Best Wishes from Linda.
Hello Linda, Long time no speak :-) That's right, it is St. Andrew's where the cholera victims were buried, but, I thought they were registered in St. Thomas's parish registers. On reading Dianne Pye's article, it sounds as though they were not entered in any burial registers. I can feel a *mission* coming on here :-) I'll have a go on trying to fatham if the victims were entered in parish registers. Cassy: As your ancestor died in 1832 he couldn't have been buried at Queen's Cross Cemetery as it didn't open until 1904, sorry about that.
