Hello Scholemoor does not have an email address and even if they did would charge you around £30 - £50GBP for doing a look up. However, the burials at this cemetery have been digitised by them but are not surname indexed. There is now a copy of the digitisation in the local studies dept at Bradford Library and if you were to contact them with the exact date of death I am fairly certain that they would look it up for you. A long protracted search would cost you though. I have had other things looked up for me there and it has only cost me the printing and postage. I paid well under £2GBP for an obituary which is extremely reasonable. You would have to contact the library re the burials because, as I say, they are not surname indexed so may take longer to find. The last time I went to Scholemoor they had just had the digitisation done and it took longer using the CD's than hefting around the burial tomes.

Never mind! I have a half dozen books of old Bradford containing several photos of Tyrrel Street, including one taken in 1891 looking towards Bank Street and Hustlergate. It shows Brown & Muff and a bank called what was then the Bradford Commercial Bank. Might that be the one? I will scan and e-mail one or two pics to you, but you may have to give me a few days, since I am currently a bit up to my ears in work and visiting my wife, who is in hospital for an operation.

I did ask in the Archives and they were very helpful and did supply quite a number of Tyrrel St old photos. It was one of these I used to verify the plot. They found a sewer map too which named/ marked the Yorkshire bank as the corner plot. Only after I left the Archives , searched the street and left the area did I wonder if there might be a Bank street photo as well,showing the front or other side . Yes please,scan any possible picture when you have the chance. I hope the operation goes well for your wife.
