Hi June I can't speak from personal experience about Messingham but by that period most churchyards had closed to new burials and most were at cemeteries The record you have from Messingham could be the burial service but the interment could have been at a local cemetery I am sure someone with better local knowledge will reply to your post but I would think Scunthorpe cemeteries From a quick google it appears that North Lincolnshire Council may be able to help you See <http://www.northlincs.gov.uk/community-advice-and-support/burials-and-cremation/searching-for-local-graves/> There is a telephone number and email address Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 14/02/2014 18:17, June Wilson wrote: > > Dear list > > > I've had this problem for many years now and still cannot solve it so I > was wondering if someone could advise me, firstly my grandparents Henry gg > Wilson and Mary Jane Wilson nee shucksmith are registered on Freereg as > being buried in Messingham granddad died in 1928 East Butterwick though > they lived east Butterwick road Susworth, nan died 1950 Wrawby Road Brigg, > I've been round the grave yard and didn't see a grave only of great > grandparents, is there a cemetery list at all for messingham kind regards > june
